    2 Chronicles 9

    Solomon here continues to appear great both at home and abroad. We had this account of his grandeur, 1 Kings 10:1-10:29 Nothing is here added; but his defection towards his latter end, which we have there (1 Kings 11:1-11:43), is here omitted, and the close of this chapter brings him to the grave with an unstained reputation. Perhaps none of the chapters in the Chronicles agree so much with a chapter in the Kings as this does with 1 Kings 10:1-10:29 verse for verse, only that the 1 Kings 10:1, 10:2, 9:1 are put into one here, and 2 Chronicles 9:25, 4:26 here is taken from 1 Kings 4:26, 9:25; and the 2 Chronicles 9:29-9:31, 11:41-11:43 here from 1 Kings 11:41-11:43, 9:29-9:31. Here is, I. The honour which the queen of Sheba did to Solomon, in the visit she made him to hear his wisdom, 2 Chronicles 9:1-9:12. II. Many instances given of the riches and splendour of Solomon’s court, 2 Chronicles 9:13-9:28. III. The conclusion of his reign, 2 Chronicles 9:29-9:31.MHBCC 377.1
