 * he died.
   David at his death had every thing that his heart could wish:
   "he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour;"
   having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did.
   "David," says Dr. Delaney, "was a true believer, a zealous
   adorer of God, teacher of His law and worship, and inspirer of
   His praise; a glorious example, a perpetual and inexhaustible
   fountain of true piety; a consummate and unrivalled hero; a
   skilful and successful captain; a steady patriot; a wise
   ruler; a faithful, generous, and magnanimous friend; and what
   is yet rarer, a no less generous and magnanimous enemy; a true
   penitent, a divine musician, a sublime poet, and an inspired
   prophet.  By birth a peasant, by merit a prince!  In youth a
   hero, in manhood a monarch, and in age a saint."

 * Then Solomon.
   This seems to have taken place a short time after David's
   decease, and, according to some, in the second year of
   Solomon's reign; when being established in his kingdom, he
   convened his chief men, and spake to them concerning the
   solemn sacrifice which he purposed to offer to God.

 * to the captains.

   The tabernacle and the brazen altar still remained at Gibeon;
   but David had brought away the ark out of the tabernacle, and
   placed it in a tent at Jerusalem.

 * Because.
   This does not occur in Kings:  and it implies that the request
   of Solomon, as arising from a spiritual judgment and heart,
   was peculiarly acceptable to that God who searches, regards,
   and demands the heart.  God promised Solomon all the things
   which he had not asked, except the life of his enemies; for he
   was to be a peaceable king, a type of the Prince of peace.

 * this was.

 * linen yarn.
   The word [miqvê <\\See definition 04723\\>,] or
   [miqvêh <\\See definition 04723\\>,] {mikweh,} is regarded by
   the ancient translators as a proper name:  the LXX. have [ek
   Thekoue,] "from Tekoa," the Vulgate, {de Coa,} "from Koa,"
   which is adopted by Dr. Geddes; the Syriac, "from the city
   Aphelia;" and the Arabic, "{ex urbe Australium.}"  Bochart
   thinks it signifies a tribute; others suppose that it
   signifies a string or drove of horses, or as Jarchi says, what
   the Germans call {Stutte,} a stud; but Houbigant supposes it
   to be a corruption for {mercavah,} "chariots."  Our English
   translation, however, which regards it as synonymous with
   {tikwah,} seems by far the best.  According to Norden, linen
   yarn is still one of the principal articles of commerce in
   Egypt, and is exported in very large quantities, together with
   unmanufactured flax and spun cotton; and Sanutus, 400 years
   ago, remarked that though Christian countries abounded in
   flax, yet the goodness of the Egyptian was such, that it was
   dispersed even to the west.

 # 1Ki 5:6
 * algum trees.  or, algummim.
   Called in the parallel passage, by a transposition of letters,
   {almuggim,} or "almug-trees;" which is rendered by the
   Vulgate, {ligna thyina,} the thya or lignum vitæ wood.
   Theophrastus say that "the thyon of thya tree grows near the
   temple of Jupiter Ammon (in Africa), and in the Cyrenaica;
   that it resembles the cypress in its boughs, leaves, stalk,
   and fruit; and that its wood (from its close texture) never
   rots."  The LXX. render here [peukina;] and Josephus calls it
   [xyla peukina,] torch or pine-trees; but cautions us against
   supposing that the wood was like what was known in his time by
   that name; for these "were to the sight like the wood of the
   fig-tree, but more white and shining."  The Syriac version has
   {kaiso dekee-sotho,} probably cypress wood; and Dr. Shaw
   supposes it denotes the cypress.  Several critics understand
   it to mean gummy wood; and Celsius queries whether it may not
   be the sandal-tree, as the Rabbins and Dr. Geddes suppose.

 * instructed.  Heb. founded.  The length.
 # 1Ki 6:2,3
 * the first measure.
   It is supposed, with much probability, that the first measure
   means the cubit used in the time of Moses, contradistinguished
   from that used in Babylon, and which the Israelites used after
   their return from captivity:  and, as these Books were written
   after the captivity, it was necessary for the writer to make
   this remark, lest it should be thought that the measurement
   was by the Babylonish cubit, which was a palm or one-sixth
   shorter than the cubit of Moses; which may serve to reconcile
   some variations in the historical books, with respect to
   numbers when applied to measures.
19191
 * the porch.
 # Joh 10:23 Ac 3:11 5:12
 * an hundred and twenty.
   As the height of the temple was only thirty cubits, 120 seems
   too great a height for the porch; but the Syriac, Arabic, and
   the LXX. in the codex Alexandrinus, have only twenty, probably
   reading, instead of {maiah weesrim,} "one hundred and twenty,"
   {ammoth esrim,} "twenty cubits;" which brings it within the
   proportion of the other measures.
19192
 * the greater.

19193
 * garnished.  Heb. covered.  precious.
 # 1Ch 29:2,8 Isa 54:11,12 Re 21:18-21
 * Parvaim.
   Parvaim is supposed by Calmet to be the same as Sepharvaim in
   Armenia or Media; Bochart is of opinion that it is Taprobanes,
   now the island of Ceylon, which he drives from {taph,} a
   border, and Parvan, i.e., "the coast of Parvan;" but the late
   Editor of Calmet thinks it the same as the Parvatoi mountains
   of Ptolemy, at the head of the Indus.
