Precious stones. The Temple was adorned with precious stones collected by David (1 Chron. 29:2). See also 1 Kings 10:11, which relates that Hiram’s fleet brought precious stones from Ophir.

Parvaim. This place has not been identified. It is thought to have been in Arabia. The name Parvaim occurs only here in Scripture.
