1 Reyes 10:19 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 10:19

The throne had six steps
Up to the footstool of the throne, which was of gold, ( 2 Chronicles 9:18 ) and was high, that everyone in court might see him, and the better hear the sentence he gave:

and the top of the throne was round behind;
had a semicircle at the top of it, like an alcove:

and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat;
or "hands" F17, such as the arms of a chair, to lean and rest upon:

and two lions stood beside the stays;
which were not only ornamental, and for support of the stays, but expressive of majesty, and of undaunted courage and resolution to do justice, and of the danger such expose themselves to, who oppose magistrates in the discharge of their office; and in which Solomon was a type of Christ, the lion of the tribe of Judah; and for the same reasons were the like portraits on the steps, as follows.

1 Reyes 10:19 In-Context

17 Tambi茅n hizo trescientos escudos m谩s peque帽os de oro labrado a martillo; cada uno pesaba casi dos kilos.
El rey coloc贸 los escudos en el Palacio del Bosque del L铆bano.
18 Luego el rey hizo un gran trono, decorado con marfil y revestido de oro fino.
19 El trono ten铆a seis escalones y un respaldo redondeado. A cada lado del asiento hab铆a apoyabrazos, y a cada lado del trono hab铆a una figura de le贸n de pie.
20 Hab铆a tambi茅n otros doce leones, uno en cada extremo de los seis escalones. 隆No hab铆a trono en todo el mundo que pudiera compararse con el de Salom贸n!
21 Todas las copas del rey Salom贸n eran de oro macizo, igual que todos los utensilios en el Palacio del Bosque del L铆bano. No estaban hechos de plata porque en los tiempos de Salom贸n la plata no se consideraba de valor.
