Gill's Notes on the Bible

So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom. In which he was an eminent type of Christ; see Ephesians 3:8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the marginal references. By “all the earth” we are, of course, only to understand the kings or people of neighboring nations.
