Contextual Overview
1And it comes to pass at the end of twenty years that Solomon has built the house of YHWH and his own house. 2As for the cities that Huram has given to Solomon, Solomon has built them, and he causes the sons of Israel to dwell there.3And Solomon goes to Hamath-Zobah, and lays hold on it; 4and he builds Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the cities of store that he has built in Hamath. 5And he builds Beth-Horon the upper, and Beth-Horon the lower—cities of defense, with walls, double gates, and bar— 6and Ba‘alath, and all the cities of store that Solomon had, and all the cities of the chariot, and the cities of the horsemen, and all the desire of Solomon that he desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion. 7All the people who are left of the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, who are not of Israel— 8of their sons who have been left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel did not consume—Solomon lifts up a tribute to this day. 9And Solomon has made none of the sons of Israel servants for his work, but they [are] men of war, and heads of his captains, and heads of his charioteers, and of his horsemen; 10and these [are] heads of the officers whom King Solomon has, two hundred and fifty who are rulers among the people.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon,.... Which Solomon first gave to him, but he not liking them, returned them to him, 1 Kings 9:12,
Solomon built them; or rebuilt them, being very much out of repair, which might be one reason of Huram's not accepting them:
and caused the children of Israel to dwell there; they being inhabited by others, the remains of the Canaanitcs perhaps; see 2 Chronicles 8:7.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The cities which Huram had restored to Solomon - These cities had not been mentioned previously by the writer of Chronicles, who, however, seems to assume that the fact of their having been given by Hiram to Solomon is known to his readers. See 1 Kings 9:11-13.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 8:2. The cities which Huram had restored — 1 Kings 9:11.
