If the reading be sound, we may understand <em>return presents, i.e.,<\/em> gifts equal in value to those which she had bestowed. Or better, we may regard the clause as a parenthetic note of the chroniclers, to the effect that the giving of presents was <em>not all on one side.<\/em> Solomon showed himself as royally generous as his visitor. Putting the clause first would make this meaning clearer: And quite apart from what she brought the king, Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire. Bertheau, however, proposes a slight change in the Hebrew text, so as to get the sense, beside what the king had brought for her. <span class='bible'>1Ki. 10:13<\/span> is much clearer: besides what he had given her, according to the hand of king Solomon.
