1 Kings 10:5

food <03978> [the meat.]

attendants <04612> [attendance. Heb. standing. cup-bearers. or, butlers. ascent.]

The original {we”latho asher ya„leh baith yehowah,} is rendered by the LXX. and Vulgate, [kai ten olokowtosin autou en anepheren en oiko Kuriou;] {et holocausta, qu‘ offerebat in domo Domini,} "And the burnt offerings (or holocausts) which he offered in the house of the Lord;" with which the Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic agree; and so also Luther, {llnd feine Brandopfer, bie er in bem Daufe bes Derrn opferte;} and this seems to be the true sense of the passage.

1 Kings 20:12

20:12

reply <01697> [message. Heb. word. drinking.]

quarters <05521> [pavilions. or, tents.]

That persons of regal dignity regaled themselves in this manner, we may learn from Dr. Chandler, who, when he went to visit the Aga of Suki, after his return from hawking, found him vexed and tired; and "a couch was prepared from him beneath a shed made against a cottage, and covered with green boughs to keep off the sun. He entered as we were standing by, and fell down on it to sleep, without taking any notice of us."

ready ... attack So .... ready ... attack <07760> [Set yourselves in array. And they set, etc. or, Place the engines. And they placed engines.]
