1:14-17 The illustration of Solomon’s wealth and power (expanded on in 9:25-28) comes from the summary of his kingdom in 1 Kgs 10:26-29. In Kings, the summary of Solomon’s wealth provided a transition to the negative aspects of Solomon’s rule (1 Kgs 11). Here, Solomon’s amassing of wealth showed the fulfillment of God’s promise (2 Chr 1:12).
