This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Ch_9:12 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside [that] which she had brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away to her own land, she and her servants.
Ver. 12. And king Solomon gave to the queen.] 1Ki_10:13.
Besides that which she had brought unto the king,] i.e., Besides that which he gave her in exchange or requital of her presents, he added many more thereunto, out of his own mere bounty and liberality; even the greatest rarities of his country. Munster’s translation therefore is not to be admitted, Sed non tantum quantum illa attulit regi. Ingenuous spirits love not to lie behind in their courteous retributions.
