1 Kraljevima 4:25

span data-lang="hrv" data-trans="cro" data-ref="1ki.4.1" class="versetxt"> Kralj Salomon bio je kralj nad svim Izraelom, a evo njegovih odličnika: Azarja, sin Sadokov, svećenik; Elihoref i Ahija, sinovi Šišini, bilježnici; Jošafat, sin Ahiludov, savjetnik; Benaja, sin Jojadin, vojskovođa; Sadok i Ebjatar, svećenici. Azarja, sin Natanov, bio je nad namjesnicima; Zabud, sin Natanov, prijatelj kraljev; Ahišar, upravitelj dvora; Eliab, sin Joabov, zapovjednik vojske; Adoram, sin Abdin, nadstojnik za tlaku. Salomon je imao po svem Izraelu dvanaest namjesnika koji su opskrbljivali kralja i njegov dom; za svakoga je dolazio red da po jedan mjesec u godini podmiruje to uzdržavanje. Evo njihovih imena: ...sin Hurov, u gori Efrajimovoj; ...sin Dekerov, u Makasu, Šaalbimu, Bet Šemešu, Elonu do Bet Hanana; ...sin Hesedov, u Arubotu; pod njim bijaše Soho i sav kraj heferski; ...sin Abinadabov, nad svim okružjem dorskim; žena mu je bila Tafata, kći Salomonova; Baana, sin Ahiludov, u Tanaku i Megidu i u svem Bet Šeanu, koji je pokraj Saretana niže Jizreela, od Bet Šeana do Abel Mekole, i preko Jokmeama. ...sin Geberov, u Ramotu Gileadskom; njegova su bila Sela Jaira, sina Manašeova, koja su u Gileadu; imao je i područje Argob koje leži u Bašanu, šezdeset tvrdih gradova, opasanih zidovima i prijevornicama od tuča; Ahinabad, sin Idov, u Mahanajimu; Ahimaas u Naftaliju; i on se oženio jednom Salomonovom kćeri - Bosmatom. Baana, sin Hušajev, u Ašeru i na visoravnima; Jošafat, sin Paruahov, u Jisakaru; Šimej, sin Elin, u Benjaminu; Geber, sin Urijin, u zemlji Gileadu, zemlji Sihona, kralja amorejskoga, i Oga, kralja bašanskoga. Povrh toga bio je još jedan namjesnik u zemlji. Juda i Izrael bili su mnogobrojni, bijaše ih kao pijeska na obali morskoj. Jeli su i pili i bili sretni.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Judah and Israel dwelt safely,.... Without fear of any injury done to their persons or properties by any enemy; which is, and will be, more abundantly fulfilled in Christ, the antitype of Solomon, Jeremiah 23:5;

every man under his vine, and under his fig tree; which were principal trees in the land of Judea, put for all the rest; and the phrase denotes the happy, safe, quiet, full, and peaceable enjoyment of all outward blessings, and is used of the times of the Messiah, Micah 4:4;

from Dan even to Beersheba; which were the two extremities of the land of Israel, north and south:

all the days of Solomon; so long this peace and safety continued, there being no wars in his time.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Under his vine ... - This phrase seems to have been common among the Jews, and even among neighboring nations 2 Kings 18:31, to express a time of quiet and security. It is used by the prophets in descriptions of the Messianic kingdom (marginal references).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 4:25. Every man under his vine — They were no longer obliged to dwell in fortified cities for fear of their enemies; they spread themselves over all the country, which they everywhere cultivated; and had always the privilege of eating the fruits of their own labours. This is the meaning of the phrase.
