SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:27
Y estos gobernadores mantenían al rey Salomón, y a todos los que a la mesa del rey Salomón venían, cada uno su mes; y hacían que nada faltase.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. And these officers provided victuals for King Solomon , etc.] The twelve before mentioned; and this is repeated here, after the account of his horses, to observe, that they provided for them also, as well as for the sake of what follows; that the large provision made by them was not only for Solomon’s family and domestic servants, but for strangers from different arts, who came upon messages to him, or to visit him, and to behold the splendour of his court: and for all that came to Solomon’s table ; which was an open table for all comers, as there were some from all parts of the earth, ( 1 Kings 4:34); every man in his month ; each of the twelve officers provided food in the month assigned to him: they lacked nothing ; they always had enough to supply the king with, and they failed not in the performance of their duty, nor came short of their salaries, being fully and punctually paid them.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 20-28 - Never did the crown of Israel shine so bright, as when Solomon wore it He had peace on all sides. Herein, his kingdom was a type of the Messiah's; for to Him it is promised that he shall have the heathen for his inheritance, and that princes shall worship him. The spiritual peace, and joy, and holy security, of all the faithful subjects of the Lord Jesus, were typified by that of Israel. The kingdom of God is not as Solomon's was, meat and drink, but, what is infinitely better righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. The vast number of his attendants, and the great resort to him, are shown by the provisio daily made. Herein Christ far outdoes Solomon, that he feeds all his subjects, not with the bread that perishes, but with that which endure to eternal life.
