Gill's Notes on the Bible
But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side,.... From foreign enemies; for Solomon had no wars with any:
[so that there is] neither adversary; or Satan, no internal enemy in his kingdom, as well as no external ones, Adonijah, Joab, and other ill-designing persons, being cut off:
nor evil occurrent; nothing that rose up, and met him, to discourage or hinder the prosecution of the good work he had in view.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The contrast is not between different periods of Solomon’s reign, but between his reign and that of his father.
Evil occurrent - Rather, evil occurrence.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 5:4. There is neither adversary — אין שטן eyn satan, there is no satan-no opposer, nor any kind of evil; all is peace and quiet, both without and within. God has given me this quiet that I may build his temple. Deus nobis haec otia fecit.
