Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjathjearim,.... See 2 Samuel 6:2.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The narrative here corresponds with 1 Kings 3:4; but is very much fuller. We learn from the present passage:
(1) that Solomon’s sacrifice at Gibeon was a great public festivity, to which he collected vast numbers of the people;
(2) that it was made upon the brass altar of Bezaleel, which
(3) stood before the tabernacle; and
(4) that Solomon’s vision was on the night of his sacrifice. Consult the marginal references

Sought unto it - i. e., “frequented it” - “were in the habit of making use of it.”
