1 Reis 5:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 5:14

And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses,
&c.] In their turns; these are the servants of his he proposed to be with Hiram's servants, assisting in cutting down the trees, and squaring the timber in Lebanon, ( 1 Kings 5:6 ) ;

a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home;
that they might not be overworked; for they wrought but four months in the year in the hard service in Lebanon, the rest of their time was spent in managing their domestic affairs; these were Israelites:

and Adoniram [was] over the levy:
the same that was over the tribute or the collectors of the tax, ( 1 Kings 4:6 ) ; and, according to the Targum, these were such persons.

1 Reis 5:14 In-Context

12 Deu, pois, o Senhor a Salomão sabedoria, como lhe tinha prometido. E houve paz entre Hirão e Salomão; e fizeram aliança entre si.
13 Também e rei Salomão fez, dentre todo o Israel, uma leva de gente para trabalho forçado; e a leva se compunha de trinta mil homens.
14 E os enviava ao Líbano por turnos, cada mês dez mil; um mês estavam no Líbano, e dois meses cada um em sua casa; e Adonirão estava sobre a leva.
15 Tinha também Salomão setenta mil que levavam as cargas, e oitenta mil que talhavam pedras nas montanhas,
16 afora os mestres de obra que estavam sobre aquele serviço, três mil e trezentes, os quais davam as ordens aos trabalhadores.
