Theological / Devotional

Baalath. see on 1 Kings 9:18. This town has not yet been identified.

The account in Chronicles does not mention such places as Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer, where Solomon carried on important building activities, or such items as Solomon’s forced levy for the building of the Temple and the palace, and his work on Millo and the wall of Jerusalem. For these items see on 1 Kings 9:15–17. On the other hand, Chronicles mentions some items that are not found in the account in Kings.
