1 Re 4:21

E Salomone regnò su tutti i regni dal fiume fino al paese dei Filistei e fino al confine dell'Egitto: portarono doni e servirono Salomone per tutti i giorni della sua vita.

Ver. 21. And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms.] Not all the kingdoms of the world, a κοσμοκρατωρ, - as some Hebrews make him, - but over all kingdoms thereabout. He was a most potent and flourishing monarch.

All the days of his life.] Notwithstanding his apostasy, through God's longsufferance: so that his reign represented the church triumphant, as David's reign had done the church militant.
