1 Reyes 9:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 9:16

For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and
burnt it with fire
Egypt lay lower than Canaan, and therefore Pharaoh is said to go up to it; what moved him to it is not certain; whether he went of himself provoked, or was moved to it by Solomon, who had married his daughter; however, so he did, and took the place, and burnt it:

and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city:
for though it was given to the tribe of Ephraim, yet they could not drive the Canaanites out of it, who seem to have remained in it to this time; see ( Joshua 16:10 ) ( Judges 1:29 )

and given it for a present unto his daughter, Solomon's wife;
not as a dowry with her, but as a present to her; perhaps some time after marriage.
