Commentary on the Old Testament
C. F. Keil & F. Delitzsch · 19th-century historical commentary
Source: BibleWord.ai's local reference edition of this named work.
Ch2 9:25 does not correspond to the passage Kg1 10:26, but in contents and language agrees with Kg1 5:6, and Ch2 9:26 with Kg1 5:1. Only the general estimate of Solomon's riches in gold and silver, in Ch2 9:27, repeated from Ch2 1:15, corresponds to Kg1 10:27. Finally, in Ch2 9:28 the whole description is rounded off; all that has already been said in Ch2 1:16, Ch2 1:17 as to the trade in horses with Egypt ( Kg1 10:28-29) being drawn together into one general statement. 2 Chronicles 9:29
