Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Kings 4:25

_ _ every man under his vine and ... fig tree — This is a common and beautiful metaphor for peace and security (Micah 4:4; Zechariah 3:10), founded on the practice, still common in modern Syria, of training these fruit trees up the walls and stairs of houses, so as to make a shady arbor, beneath which the people sit and relax.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Kings 4:20-28.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Kings 4:25

Under his vine — Enjoying the fruit of his own labour with safety and comfort. Under these two trees, which were most used and cultivated by the Israelites, he understands all other fruit — bearing trees, and all other comforts. And they are brought in as fitting or dwelling under these trees, partly for recreation or delight in the shade; and partly, for the comfort or advantage of the fruit; and withal, to note their great security, not only in their strong cities, but even in the country, where the vines and fig — trees grew, which was most open to the incursions of their enemies.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Kings 4:25

And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from (i) Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.

(i) Throughout all Israel.
