1 Kings 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 10:13

And King Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire,
whatsoever she asked
Some curious things she saw, and was desirous of, she asked for, and had them:

besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty;
of his own good will and pleasure, without asking:

so she turned and went to her own country:
the country of Sheba in Arabia Felix:

she and her sergeants:
the train or retinue she brought with her, which was large, ( 1 Kings 10:2 ) .
