1 Chronicles 29:25 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 29:25

And the Lord magnified Solomon exceedingly before all Israel,
&c.] By giving him such a large share of wisdom and understanding in government:

and bestowed upon him such royal majesty;
not only such wealth and riches, but such honour and reverence,

as had not been on any king before him in Israel;
not on Saul, nor even on David.

24 sed et universi principes et potentes et cuncti filii regis David dederunt manum et subiecti fuerunt Salomoni regi

25 magnificavit ergo Dominus Salomonem super omnem Israhel et dedit illi gloriam regni qualem nullus habuit ante eum rex Israhel

27 et dies quibus regnavit super Israhel fuerunt quadraginta anni in Hebron regnavit septem annis et in Hierusalem triginta tribus
