SOLOMON'S BUILDINGS.

无标题
2. 户兰所归还的城邑……所罗门建造等——这些城邑位于加利利的西北部。虽在应许之地的疆界之内，却从未被征服。所罗门将其中的居住权让给户兰，户兰考虑之后，因这些地方不适合他臣民经商的习性而拒绝了（参看
1Ki 9:11
的注释）。
所罗门便从迦南居民手中夺取了这些城邑，加以修筑，并以希伯来人移居其中。
英文原文
2. cities which Huram had restored . . . Solomon built them, &c.--These cities lay in the northwest of Galilee. Though included within the limits of the promised land, they had never been conquered. The right of occupying them Solomon granted to Huram, who, after consideration, refused them as unsuitable to the commercial habits of his subjects (see on
1Ki 9:11).
Solomon, having wrested them from the possession of the Canaanite inhabitants, repaired them and filled them with a colony of Hebrews.

3-6. 所罗门往哈马琐巴去——哈马位于奥伦提斯河（Orontes）上的叙利亚谷地（Cœle-Syria）。其王陀伊曾是大卫的盟友；但从「哈马琐巴」这一合称来看，似乎发生过某种变革，使叙利亚这两个小国合并为一。所罗门因何缘故对其心生恶感，我们不得而知，但他派出一支军队将其征服。他又占据了达莫，即同一地区著名的帕尔米拉（Palmyra）。他沿其广大疆界各处的其他城邑加以修筑装备，或作为推进其商业经营之积货城，或为防御外敌入侵以保障国家安全（参看
2Ch 1:14；
1Ki 9:15
的注释）。
英文原文
3-6. And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah--Hamath was on the Orontes, in Cœle-Syria. Its king, Toi, had been the ally of David; but from the combination, Hamath and Zobah, it would appear that some revolution had taken place which led to the union of these two petty kingdoms of Syria into one. For what cause the resentment of Solomon was provoked against it, we are not informed, but he sent an armed force which reduced it. He made himself master also of Tadmor, the famous Palmyra in the same region. Various other cities along the frontiers of his extended dominions he repaired and fitted up, either to serve as store-places for the furtherance of his commercial enterprises, or to secure his kingdom from foreign invasion (see on
2Ch 1:14;
1Ki 9:15).

迦南人被征为苦役
7. 至于国中所剩下的百姓等——留在国中的迦南人后裔被当作战俘对待，被迫「缴纳贡物，或作摇橹的苦工」
(2Ch 2:18)，
而以色列人则只从事体面的工作。
英文原文
2Ch 8:7-11.
THE CANAANITES MADE TRIBUTARIES.
7. all the people that were left, &c.--The descendants of the Canaanites who remained in the country were treated as war prisoners, being obliged to "pay tribute or to serve as galley slaves"
(2Ch 2:18),
while the Israelites were employed in no works but such as were of an honorable character.

11. 所罗门将法老的女儿从大卫城带上去，到他所为她建造的宫里——他在位之初与这位埃及公主成亲时，把她暂安在大卫城，即耶路撒冷，直到为妻子建造了合宜的宫殿。宫殿在建期间，他自己住在 David 的宫殿里，却不让她住进去，因为他觉得她既是外邦归化者，又从本国带来了一批外邦使女，让她住在一所因曾迎约柜而成为圣的宅第中（无论是现在还是过去）便不合宜。看来她初到之时是被接到他母亲的住处
(So 3:4; 8:2)。
英文原文
11. Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her--On his marriage with the Egyptian princess at the beginning of his reign, he assigned her a temporary abode in the city of David, that is, Jerusalem, until a suitable palace for his wife had been erected. While that palace was in progress, he himself lodged in the palace of David, but he did not allow her to occupy it, because he felt that she being a heathen proselyte, and having brought from her own country an establishment of heathen maid-servants, there would have been an impropriety in her being domiciled in a mansion which was or had been hallowed by the reception of the ark. It seems she was received on her arrival into his mother's abode
(So 3:4; 8:2).

所罗门的节期献祭
15. 他们不偏离王所吩咐的——即大卫在他凭神权所立的一切典章中所吩咐的。
关于祭司和利未人，无论办什么事，或关乎府库——无论是安排祭司和利未人的班次，还是将其所积存的财宝用于圣殿的建造与装饰。
英文原文
2Ch 8:15-18.
SOLOMON'S FESTIVAL SACRIFICES.
15. they departed not from the commandment of the king--that is, David, in any of his ordinances, which by divine authority he established.
unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures--either in regulating the courses of the priests and Levites, or in the destination of his accumulated treasures to the construction and adornment of the temple.

17. 所罗门往以旬迦别和以禄去——这两个海港位于红海东湾——即今日所称的亚喀巴湾。以禄见于今日的亚喀巴，以旬迦别见于古德延 [罗宾逊（ROBINSON）]。 所罗门立志发展和平的技艺，敏锐地看出他的王国只有借着鼓励臣民的商业进取精神才能富强；于是他抱着这个心意，与户兰订立合同，获取船只和水手来教导他的百姓航海之术。
英文原文
17. Then went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth--These two maritime ports were situated at the eastern gulf of the Red Sea, now called the Gulf of Akaba. Eloth is seen in the modern Akaba, Ezion-geber in El Gudyan [ROBINSON]. Solomon, determined to cultivate the arts of peace, was sagacious enough to perceive that his kingdom could become great and glorious only by encouraging a spirit of commercial enterprise among his subjects; and, accordingly, with that in mind he made a contract with Huram for ships and seamen to instruct his people in navigation.

18. 户兰差遣……船——要么是差遣船员——能干的水手——经陆路而来；要么取「差遣」一词较宽泛之义，即供应他，也就是为他造船——即在以禄的船坞中（参
1Ki 9:26, 27）。
所罗门这支舰队由推罗人驾驶，因为所罗门没有能胜任远航的水手。那些在提比哩亚海面上作业或沿海岸航行的希伯来渔夫，不能胜任驾驶满载贵重货物的大船作远航、穿越广阔而人迹罕至的大洋。
四百五十他连得金子——（参
1Ki 9:28）。
两段经文之一有窜误。
英文原文
18. Huram sent him . . . ships--either sent him ship-men, able seamen, overland; or, taking the word "sent" in a looser sense, supplied him, that is, built him ships--namely, in docks at Eloth (compare
1Ki 9:26, 27).
This navy of Solomon was manned by Tyrians, for Solomon had no seamen capable of performing distant expeditions. The Hebrew fishermen, whose boats plied on the Sea of Tiberias or coasted the shores of the Mediterranean, were not equal to the conducting of large vessels laden with valuable cargoes on long voyages and through the wide and unfrequented ocean.
four hundred and fifty talents of gold--(Compare
1Ki 9:28).
The text in one of these passages is corrupt.
