Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Hiram sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold. Not after the cities had been given him, but before; and it may be rendered "had sent" m, and is the sum of the gold he furnished him with for the temple, 1 Kings 9:11 which, according to Brerewood n, was 540,000 pounds of our money; and, according to another o writer, it amounted to 1,466,400 ducats of gold, taking a talent at 12,220 ducats.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hiram sent sixscore talents of gold - Apparently, to show that, although disappointed, he was not offended. The sum sent was very large - above a million and a quarter of our money, according to one estimate of the weight of the Hebrew gold talent; or about 720,000 according to the estimate adopted in Exodus 38:24-29 note. At any rate, it was more than equal to a sixth part of Solomon’s regular revenue 1 Kings 10:14.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 9:14. Sixscore talents of gold. — This was the sum which Hiram had lent, and in order to pay this Solomon had laid a tax upon his people, as we afterward learn. The whole is very darkly expressed.
