1 Chronicles 22:14
[trouble. or, poverty.]
100,000 ..... 1,000,000 <03967 0505> [an hundred thousand.]
This, at 5,075œ. 15s. 7«d. the talent, would amount to the sum of 507,578,125œ.
100,000 talents .... 1,000,000 talents ... silver <0505 03603 03701> [thousand thousand talents of silver.]
This, at 353Å“. 11s. 10d. the talent, would amount to 353,591,666Å“. 13s. 4d.; and both sums would amount to the immense sum of 868,169,791Å“. 13s. 4d.
weighed <04948> [without weight.]

onyx ....... stones ...... stones <07718 068> [onyx stones.]
{Avney shoham,} which was, probably, not the precious stone or gem called onyx, but a marble called in Greek {onychites,} which Pliny mentions as a stone Caramania; for one would hardly think that gems of any kind were used externally in such a building as the temple. Antiquity gave both stones this name, because of their resemblance to the nail of the finger.
onyx .... antimony .... stones ...... stones <068 06320> [glistering stones.]
{Avney phuch} seems to denote a kind of black marble, so called from its colour resembling stibium: so Vulgate {quasi stibinos.}
onyx ....... stones ...... stones ... alabaster <068 07893> [marble stones.]
{Avney shayish} is rendered in the Targum {avney marmoraiyah,} "stones of marble," and by the LXX., and Vulgate [Parion] or [Parinon,] or {marmor Parium,} "Parium marble," which was remarkable for its bright white colour. Josephus says that the temple was built of large blocks of white marble, beautifully polished, so as to produce a most splendid appearance.

Probably Jabez should be mentioned here; as otherwise he is as a consequent without an antecedent.

Ezrah <05834> [Ezra.]
Ezra seems to be the person before called Asareel in ver. 16.
Mered's ....... Miriam <02029 04813> [and she bare Miriam.]
It is probable that the latter part of ver. 18 should be transposed before this passage, which Michaelis thinks is its right place; for otherwise we have the pronoun she without an antecedent, and children born without their father's being mentioned.
