1 Reyes 3:13 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 3:13

And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked,
&c.] That is, intended to give him, and now promised it, and was about to bestow it on him:

both riches and honour;
the former through the presents and tribute of the nations about him, and his trading to foreign parts; and the latter chiefly through his wisdom, the fame of which was spread everywhere:

so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy
days;
that is, none like him for riches and honour among all the kings of the neighbouring nations so long as he lived; though there might be kings in later times as rich, or richer than he, as Croesus, Alexander, &c. but then not so honourable as he; so, putting both together, there were no kings like him before or after, and especially if wisdom be added to them, as in ( 2 Chronicles 1:12 ) .

1 Reyes 3:13 In-Context

11 de modo que le dijo:—Como has pedido esto, y no larga vida ni riquezas para ti, ni has pedido la muerte de tus enemigos sino discernimiento para administrar justicia,
12 voy a concederte lo que has pedido. Te daré un corazón sabio y prudente, como nadie antes de ti lo ha tenido ni lo tendrá después.
13 Además, aunque no me lo has pedido, te daré tantas riquezas y esplendor que en toda tu vida ningún rey podrá compararse contigo.
14 Si andas por mis sendas y obedeces mis decretos y mandamientos, como lo hizo tu padre David, te daré una larga vida.
15 Cuando Salomón despertó y se dio cuenta del sueño que había tenido, regresó a Jerusalén. Se presentó ante el arca del pacto del Señor y ofreció holocaustos y sacrificios de comunión. Luego ofreció un banquete para toda su corte.
