SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:11

(para las cuales Hiram rey de Tiro, había traído a Salomón madera de cedro y de haya, y cuanto oro él quiso), que el rey Salomón dio a Hiram veinte ciudades en tierra de Galilea.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 9:11

Verse 11.
Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities] It is very likely that Solomon did not give those cities to Hiram so that they should be annexed to his Tyrian dominions, but rather gave him the produce of them till the money was paid which he had advanced to Solomon for his buildings. It appears however that either Hiram did not accept them, or that having received the produce till he was paid, he then restored them to Solomon; for in the parallel place, 2 Chron. viii. 2, it is said, The cities which Hiram had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. Some think that they were heathen cities which Solomon had conquered, and therefore had a right to give them if he pleased, as they were not any part of the land given by promise to the Israelites.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 11. (Now Hiram the king of
Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees , etc.] For the building of both his houses; (see Kings 5:8,10), and with gold, according to all his desire) : which is not before mentioned, and accounts for it from whence Solomon had his gold; if he made no use, as some think he did not, of what his father left him; (see 1 Kings 7:51) with which he covered several parts of the temple, and made several vessels in it. Hiram traded to Ophir, and had it from thence; and he could supply Solomon with it, and did, before he sent a navy thither: that then Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee ; that is, by or near it, for they were not in the land of Canaan; for then Solomon could not have disposed of them, being allotted and belonging to one of the tribes of Israel, and part of the Lord’s inheritance; but they were upon the borders, particularly on the borders of Asher, if Cabul in ( Joshua 19:27), can be thought to be the same with these; though some think that Solomon did not give Hiram the possession of these cities, but the royalties and revenues of them, their produce until the debt was paid: but they rather seem to be a gratuity, and a full grant of them, and might be cities which David had conquered, and taken out of the hands of the ancient inhabitants of them; and so Solomon had a right to dispose of them, being left him by his father; for it is plain as yet they were not inhabited by Israelites; (see 2 Chronicles 8:2). They are by a Jewish writer said to be twenty two, very wrongly.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 10-14 -
Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities. Hiram did not like them. If Solomo would gratify him, let it be in his own element, by becoming his partner in trade, as he did. See how the providence of God suits thi earth to the various tempers of men, and the dispositions of men to the earth, and all for the good of mankind in general.
