SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:26
Y tomó los tesoros de la Casa del SEÑOR, y los tesoros de la casa real, y lo saqueó todo. Y tomó todos los escudos de oro que Salomón había hecho.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 14:26
Verse 26. He took away the treasures] All the treasures which Solomon had amassed, both in the temple and in his own houses; a booty the most immense ever acquired in one place. All the shields of gold which Solomon had made.] These were three hundred in number, and were all made of beaten gold. See a computation of their value in the note on chap. x. 17.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 26. And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord , etc.] Which perhaps Jeroboam had informed him of, and for the sake of which he came, as well as to make a diversion in favour of Jeroboam, who had contracted an intimacy with him when in Egypt; and who might have no regard for Rehoboam, who was not a son of Pharaoh’s daughter, and so no relation to him: these were the treasures which David had left to his son Solomon, and had dedicated for the temple, even gold, silver, and vessels, which he put among the treasures of the house of the Lord, and perhaps added to them, ( 1 Kings 7:51), and the treasures of the king’s house; the riches, gold, silver, and jewels, whatever of worth and value he had in his chests and cabinets: he even took away all : that he could find and come at; for that there were some left is plain from ( 1 Kings 15:18), and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made ; and which were put in the house of the forest of Lebanon, ( 1 Kings 10:16,17).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 21-31 - Here is no good said of Rehoboam, and much said to the disadvantage of his subjects. The abounding of the worst crimes, of the worst of the heathen, in Jerusalem, the city the Lord had chosen for his temple an his worship, shows that nothing can mend the hearts of fallen men but the sanctifying grace of the Holy Spirit. On this alone may we depend for this let us daily pray, in behalf of ourselves and all around us The splendour of their temple, the pomp of their priesthood, and all the advantages with which their religion was attended, could no prevail to keep them close to it; nothing less than the pouring out the Spirit will keep God's Israel in their allegiance to him. Sin exposes makes poor, and weakens any people. Shishak, king of Egypt, came an took away the treasures. Sin makes the gold become dim, changes the most fine gold, and turns it into brass __________________________________________________________________
