2 Chronicles 9:26-28

9:26 He ruled all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines as far as the border of Egypt. 9:27 The king made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones; cedar was as plentiful as sycamore fig trees are in the lowlands. 9:28 Solomon acquired horses from Egypt and from all the lands.


tn Heb “the River.” In biblical Hebrew the Euphrates River was typically referred to simply as “the River.”

tn The words “as plentiful” are supplied for clarification.

tn Heb “he made cedar.”

tn Heb “as the sycamore fig trees which are in the Shephelah.”
