Commentaries and Concordances

GSB:

9:14 And Hiram sent to the king {d} sixscore {e} talents of gold.
(d) For his tribute toward the building.
(e) The common talent was about 60 pound weight.

WES:

9:14 Sent - And this seems to be here added, both to declare the quantity of the gold sent, which had been only named before, ver.11, and as the reason why he resented Solomon's action, because so great a sum required a better recompense.

MHC:

9:10-14 Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities. Hiram did not like them. If Solomon would gratify him, let it be in his own element, by becoming his partner in trade, as he did. See how the providence of God suits this earth to the various tempers of men, and the dispositions of men to the earth, and all for the good of mankind in general.
