Gill's Notes on the Bible
And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer,.... Which, in 1 Chronicles 18:8, are called Tibhath and Chun, they having different names; or their names might be changed upon this conquest of them, and the one might be the names they went by with the Syrians, and the other the Israelites called them by; the latter is the same with Berothah in
Ezekiel 47:16; and the Barathena of Ptolemy s, placed by him near Mesopotamia; in the Arabic version of 1 Chronicles 18:8, they are called Emesa and Baalbec, the former was a city of Coele-Syria, the latter was at the foot of Mount Lebanon; 1 Chronicles 18:8- :;
King David took exceeding much brass; whereby he was furnished and able to give the large quantity he did for the service of the temple, 1 Chronicles 29:7. The Septuagint version adds here what is expressed in
1 Chronicles 18:8,
"wherewith Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the layers, and all the vessels.''
s Geograph. l. 5. c. 19.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Betah and Berothai - These names (see also margin) have not been identified with certainty.
Exceeding much brass - âWherewith Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brassâ 1 Chronicles 18:8. The Septuagint and Vulgate both add these words here, so that perhaps they have fallen out of the Hebrew text. For the existence of metals in Lebanon or Antilebanon, see Deuteronomy 8:9.
