1 Reyes 16:24 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 16:24

And he bought the hill of Samaria of Shemer, for two talents
of silver
A talent of silver, according to Brerewood F6, was of our money three hundred and seventy five pounds, so that this hill was purchased at seven hundred and fifty pounds:

and built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built,
after the name of Shemer, owner of the hill, Samaria;
its name from him was Shomeron, which is the Hebrew name for Samaria; which, according to Bunting F7 was six miles from Tirzah, and ever after the royal seat of the kings of Israel.

1 Reyes 16:24 In-Context

22 Mas el pueblo que segu铆a a Omri, pudo m谩s que el que segu铆a a Tibni hijo de Ginat; y Tibni muri贸, y Omri fue rey.
23 En el a帽o treinta y uno de Asa rey de Jud谩, comenz贸 a reinar Omri sobre Israel, y rein贸 doce a帽os; en Tirsa rein贸 seis a帽os.
24 Este compr贸 el monte de Samaria de Semer por dos talentos de plata, y edific贸 en el monte; y llam贸 el nombre de la ciudad que edific贸, como el nombre de Semer, se帽or del monte de Samaria.
25 Y Omri hizo lo malo delante de los ojos del SE脩OR, e hizo peor que todos los que hab铆an sido antes de 茅l;
26 porque anduvo en todos los caminos de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, y en su pecado con que hizo pecar a Israel, provocando a ira al SE脩OR Dios de Israel en sus vanidades.
