Commentary on 1 Kings 4:24

Theological / Devotional

Tiphsah. Generally taken to be a place on the Euphrates called Thapsacus by the Greeks.

Azzah. Gaza, at the extreme south of the Philistine plain.

He had peace. At least for the time being. Everything seemed under control, quiet within and no attacks from without. But lasting peace must rest upon a firmer foundation than that provided by Solomon’s rule, as subsequent events were soon to show.
