This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Took my son from beside me; either because she really desired the comfort of a child, to be educated by her, and owned as hers; or because she would not be thought guilty of the child’s death, for which she knew not how severely Solomon would punish her.
While thine handmaid slept; as she might well know, because had she been awake, she had discovered and prevented her design.
