Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thy silver and thy gold is mine,.... Not of right, but reckoning it as good as in his hands, Ahab not being able to resist him:
and thy wives also; for it seems he had more than Jezebel:
and thy children; which were many, for he had no less than seventy sons, 2 Kings 10:1,
even the goodliest are mine: some aggravate this, as if his view was to commit the unnatural sin with his male children, when in his possession.
