1 Re 9:23 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 9:23

These were the chief of the officers over Solomon's work
In building the above houses and cities:

five hundred and fifty which bore rule over the people that wrought
in the work;
in ( 2 Chronicles 8:10 ) they are said to be but two hundred and fifty; now it may be observed, as is by the Jewish writers, that there were three sorts of those rulers; the lowest rank and order of them consisted of 3300, the next of three hundred which were over the 3300, and being numbered with them made 3600, ( 2 Chronicles 2:18 ) and the highest rank of them were two hundred and fifty, and the middlemost and highest being joined together, as they are here, made five hundred and fifty. Abarbinel reconciles the places thus, the two hundred and fifty were only over those that wrought in the temple; and the five hundred and fifty here were those that were over such that were employed in the various parts of the kingdom.

1 Re 9:23 In-Context

21 vale a dire dei loro discendenti ch’eran rimasti dopo di loro nel paese e che gl’Israeliti non avean potuto votare allo sterminio, Salomone fece tanti servi per le comandate; e tali son rimasti fino al dì d’oggi.
22 Ma de’ figliuoli d’Israele Salomone non impiegò alcuno come servo; essi furono la sua gente di guerra, i suoi ministri, i suoi principi, i suoi capitani, i comandanti dei suoi carri e de’ suoi cavalieri.
23 I capi, preposti da Salomone alla direzione dei suoi lavori, erano in numero di cinquecento cinquanta, incaricati di sorvegliare la gente che eseguiva i lavori.
24 Non appena la figliuola di Faraone salì dalla città di Davide alla casa che Salomone le avea fatto costruire, questi si mise a costruire Millo.
25 Tre volte all’anno Salomone offriva olocausti e sacrifizi di azioni di grazie sull’altare che egli aveva eretto all’Eterno, e offriva profumi su quello che era posto davanti all’Eterno. Così egli terminò definitivamente la casa.
