Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 1 Kings 3:17

And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.

17. I was delivered of a child with her ] In the narrative of Josephus the two children are said to have been born at the same hour of the same day. The LXX. renders ‘we were delivered of children in the house,’ making ‘with her’ equivalent to ‘I as well as she.’

And the one woman said,…. Who was the plaintiff:

O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; pointing to the defendant, who stood by her:

and I was delivered of a child with her in the house; she being present at the delivery, and she only, as it should seem.

1Ki 3:17 And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.

Ver. 17. I and this woman dwell in one house. ] They lived together, but scarce dwelt together, as one saith of married couples that disagree, quorum coniugium nihil aliud est quam coniurgium.
