Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 2 Chronicles 9:4
And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel; his cupbearers also, and their apparel; and his ascent by which he went up into the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.
4. and their apparel ] The phrase is repeated probably through an error of transcription; it occurs once only in the parallel place in 1 Kin.
his ascent by which he went up ] Render (if the text be sound), his manner of going up, i.e. the pomp with which he went up (so Targ.); but LXX. and Pesh. give, the burnt-offerings which he used to offer, a rendering which is right in 1Ki 10:5 (cp. R.V. mg.). The difference of reading between Chron. and 1 Kin. in the Heb. is slight.

(4) And his ascent by which he went up into the house of the Lord.Kings, And his burnt offering which he offered in the house of the Lord. The LXX., Syr., and Vulg. here agree with Kings; and the Arab. reads, the altar on which he offered. In all other passages, the word used in our text (alyh) means not ascent, but upper chamber; it is likely, therefore, that in the present instance it is merely an error of transcription for the term occurring in Kings (lh, burnt-offering).
