13<\/strong>. besides<\/em> that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty<\/em> ] The Hebrew is literally ‘beside that which he gave to her according to the hand of king Solomon.’ For the phrase ‘according to the hand’ signifying ‘after the liberality’ compare Est 1:7<\/span>; Est 2:18<\/span>, where the same Hebrew is translated ‘according to the state of the king,’ i.e. ‘according to his bounty’ where the narrative relates to a magnificent feast, and presents given to the guests. In the parallel passage (2Ch 9:12<\/span>) we have ‘beside that which she had brought unto the king,’ which is very difficult to make any sense of.<\/p>\n Verse 13<\/span>. All her desire whatsoever she asked<\/B><\/I>] Some imagine she desired progeny from the wise king of Israel; and all the traditions concerning her state that she had a son by Solomon called Menilek<\/I>, who was brought up at the Israelitish court, succeeded his mother in the kingdom of Saba, and introduced among his subjects the Jewish religion. See at the end of the chapter. 1Kg 10:29<\/span>.<\/P> <\/p>\n 13.

Her present is of the nature of tribute. Solomon gives her of his bounty, both what she asked for (probably by praising it) and what else he would.<\/p>\n 13<\/strong>. <\/strong> All her desire <\/strong> Whatever of a portable nature she desired to carry home with her as mementos of Solomon’s greatness and glory. <\/p>\n Besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty <\/strong> Or, as the margin has it, gave her according to the land of king Solomon. <\/em> That is, besides giving her the things she asked for, he gave her presents becoming his vast wealth. As she had brought him presents of such great value, it was but a matter of kingly courtesy for him to respond by similar gifts.<\/p>\n 1Ki 10:13 And king Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside [that] which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.<\/p>\n Ver. 13. All her desire, whatsoever she asked.<\/strong> ] Some say she came to Solomon, as Thalestris queen of the amazons afterwards did to Alexander the Great, to have issue by him; and that he married her and sent her away to her own country great with a son, whom she called David, whose race continueth to this day. a<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Justin., lib. xii.<\/p>\n of his royal bounty.

Solomon gave unto the queen all her desire By their mutual presents they testified their friendship to each other; wishing by these things to be remembered. Whatsoever she asked, besides what Solomon gave her of his royal bounty He desired to know what things would be acceptable to her among all the rarities she had seen, and those he bestowed upon her: besides which he added other things of value, which, it is likely, she had not in her own country. Thus they who apply to our Lord Jesus will find him not only greater and wiser than Solomon, but more kind. Whatsoever we ask, it shall be done for us; nay, he will, out of his divine bounty, which infinitely excels royal bounty, even that of Solomon, do for us more than we are able to ask or think.
