Gill's Notes on the Bible
Bathsheba therefore went unto King Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah,.... She went from her own house to the palace; for she might not live at court; or however had an apartment to herself, from whence she went to the king with her suit in favour of Adonijah:
and the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her; upon her entrance into the presence chamber, in honour to her as a parent, he rose up from his throne, and made his obeisance to her, as a dutiful son:
and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king's mother; a magnificent seat or throne, as the word is, was ordered to be set for her:
and she sat on his right hand; where he placed her in honour to her as his mother; so Nero a placed Tiridates king of Armenia at his right hand, to do him honour.
a Suetonius in Vit. Neron. c. 13.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A seat - Or, âa throne.â We have here a proof of the high dignity of the Queen-mother. Compare also 1Ki 15:13; 2 Kings 11:1-3. In the Persian court the Queen-mother had often the chief power.
