Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Chronicles 8:11

_ _ Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her — On his marriage with the Egyptian princess at the beginning of his reign, he assigned her a temporary abode in the city of David, that is, Jerusalem, until a suitable palace for his wife had been erected. While that palace was in progress, he himself lodged in the palace of David, but he did not allow her to occupy it, because he felt that she being a heathen proselyte, and having brought from her own country an establishment of heathen maid-servants, there would have been an impropriety in her being domiciled in a mansion which was or had been hallowed by the reception of the ark. It seems she was received on her arrival into his mother’s abode (Song of Songs 3:4; Song of Songs 8:2).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Chronicles 8:1-11.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Chronicles 8:11

The house — He built this house for her; because the ark was now in the house of David, which therefore ought to be kept pure and free from the very danger and appearance of pollution.
