SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:14
E Hiram había enviado al rey ciento veinte talentos de oro.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 9:14
Verse 14. Sixscore talents of gold.] This was the sum which Hiram had lent, and in order to pay this Solomon had laid a tax upon his people, as we afterward learn. The whole is very darkly expressed.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 14. And Hiram sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold .] Not after the cities had been given him, but before; and it may be rendered “had sent” f168 , and is the sum of the gold he furnished him with for the temple, ( 1 Kings 9:11) which, according to Brerewood f169 , was 540,000 pounds of our money; and, according to another writer, it amounted to 1,466,400 ducats of gold, taking a talent at 12,220 ducats.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-14 - Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities. Hiram did not like them. If Solomo would gratify him, let it be in his own element, by becoming his partner in trade, as he did. See how the providence of God suits thi earth to the various tempers of men, and the dispositions of men to the earth, and all for the good of mankind in general.
