Testament of Solomon

The Testament of Solomon ( abbreviated TestSal or tsal ) is a Christian- Gnostic apocryphal work, which is dated to the 4th century.

Meaning of the notes in Greek font is the Solomonic temple. It begins with the transfer of a signet ring from God to Solomon, with this every demon can control. Solomon tells a number of demons, they asked about their properties and determines most of them to assist in the construction of the temple.
