Contextual Overview

¹⁰ By the end of twenty years, King Solomon had built two buildings—the Temple of the Lord and the royal palace. ¹¹ At that time King Solomon gave twenty towns in Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, because Hiram had helped with the buildings. Hiram had given Solomon all the cedar, pine, and gold he wanted. ¹² So Hiram traveled from Tyre to see the towns Solomon had given him, but when he saw them, he was not pleased. ¹³ He asked, "What good are these towns you have given me, my brother?" So he named them the Land of Cabul, and they are still called that today. ¹⁴ Hiram had sent Solomon about nine thousand pounds of gold.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass at the end of twenty years,.... From the time Solomon first began to build: when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord, and the king's house; the first was seven years in building, and the other thirteen; in all twenty.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The “twenty years” are to be counted from the fourth year of Solomon, the year when he commenced the building of the temple. They are made up of the seven years employed in the work of the temple 1 Kings 6:38, and the thirteen years during which Solomon was building his own house 1 Kings 7:1.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 9:10. At the end of twenty years — He employed seven years and a half in building the temple, and twelve years and a half in building the king's house; see 1 Kings 7:1; 2 Chronicles 8:1.
