2 Chronicles 2:10

2:10 Look, I will pay your servants who cut the timber 20,000 kors ¹  of ground wheat, 20,000 kors of barley, 120,000 gallons ²  of wine, and 120,000 gallons of olive oil.”

2 Chronicles 2:1

Solomon Gathers Building Materials for the Temple

2:1 (1:18) ³  Solomon ordered a temple to be built to honor the Lord, as well as a royal palace for himself. ⁴ 

2 Chronicles 5:11

5:11 The priests left the holy place. ⁵  All the priests who participated had consecrated themselves, no matter which division they represented. ⁶ 

[2:10]  ¹ sn As a unit of dry measure a kor was roughly equivalent to six bushels (about 220 liters).

[2:10]  ² tn Heb “20,000 baths” (also a second time later in this verse). A bath was a liquid measure roughly equivalent to six gallons (about 22 liters), so this was a quantity of about 120,000 gallons (440,000 liters).

[2:1]  ³ sn Beginning with 2:1, the verse numbers through 2:18 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 2:1 ET = 1:18 HT, 2:2 ET = 2:1 HT, 2:3 ET = 2:2 HT, etc., through 2:18 ET = 2:17 HT. Beginning with 3:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same.

[2:1]  ⁴ tn Heb “and Solomon said to build a house for the name of the Lord and house for his kingship.”

[5:11]  ⁵ tn Heb “and when the priests went from the holy place.” The syntactical relationship of this temporal clause to the following context is unclear. Perhaps the thought is completed in v. 14 after a lengthy digression.

[5:11]  ⁶ tn Heb “Indeed [or “for”] all the priests who were found consecrated themselves without guarding divisions.”
