1 Kings 5:16
Three thousand &c. — Whereof three thousand were set over the fifteen hundred thousand, expressed 1 Kings 5:15, each of these, over fifty of them, and the odd three hundred were set over these three thousand, each of these to have the oversight of ten of them, to take an account of the work for them. But in 2 Chronicles 2:18, these overseers are said to be thirty — six hundred. The three thousand added in 2 Chronicles 2:2, might be a reserve, to supply the places of the other three thousand: yea, or of the thirty — three hundred, as any of them should be taken off from the work by death, or sickness, or weakness, or necessary occasions; which was a prudent provision, and not unusual in like cases. And so there were thirty — six hundred commissioned for the work, but only thirty — three hundred employed at one time; and therefore both computations fairly stand together. |
- three thousand:
- In the parallel passage of Chronicles, it is "three thousand six hundred," which is also the reading of the Septuagint here.
1 Kings 9:23 These [were] the chief of the officers that [were] over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work.
2 Chronicles 2:2 And Solomon told out threescore and ten thousand men to bear burdens, and fourscore thousand to hew in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.
