Theological / DevotionalThreescore and ten thousand. These items are also recorded in 1 Kings 5:15.
Three thousand and six hundred. See on 1 Kings 5:16 for an explanation of the seeming discrepancy between this number and the 3,300 reported there. The 70,000 bearers of burdens, 80,000 hewers in the mountains, and 3,600 overseers give a total of 153,600 workers (see v. 17).
