Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Solomon told her all her questions,.... Answered them, told her the meaning of everything she inquired about, expounded her riddles, solved her objections, and gave her satisfaction in all things she proposed unto him:

there was not anything hid from the king, which he told her not; there was not anything, though ever so abstruse and difficult, but what he understood, and gave her a clear and plain solution of.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 10:3. Solomon told her all her questions — Riddles, problems, fables, apologues, c., formed the principal part of the wisdom of the East indeed they use and delight in them to the present day. See the case of Samson and his friends, Judges 14:12; Judges 14:14, and the notes there.
