Theological / Devotional

Gold. This metal is not mentioned in the parallel statement of 1 Kings 10:27 or in 2 Chron. 9:27.

Sycomore trees. This is not the sycamore tree so common in America and England, but the sycamore fig (see 1 Chron. 27:28), which was common in the lowlands of Judah and in the Jordan valley.
