Also cedar trees in abundance,…. To be sawed into boards and planks for the cieling, wainscotting, and flooring of the temple, and other things:
for the Zidonians, and they of Tyre, brought much cedar wood to David; from Mount Lebanon, which was chiefly in their possession; and which they did either of themselves as a free gift and present to him, or at his request, for which he paid them; and this is another thing prefiguring the help of the Gentiles in building up the church of Christ in Gospel times.

(4) Also cedar trees in abundance.Literally, and beams or logs of cedars without number. A rhetorical exaggeration, like that which we have just noted. (See also 1Ch. 14:1.)
The Zidonians and they of Tyra (i.e., the Phoenicians) brought much cedar woodi.e., in the way of ordinary commerce, to barter them for supplies of grain, wine, oil, and other products of the soil, which their own rocky coast-land did not yield in sufficiency. (Comp. 1Ch. 14:1.) At a later time Hiram entered into an express contract with Solomon to supply the cedar and other materials required for building the Temple (1Ki. 5:8-11).
