Then she gave the king 120 talents of gold
The queen of Sheba's gift of 120 talents of gold to King Solomon is significant both in its quantity and its symbolism. A talent was a large unit of weight, approximately 75 pounds, making this gift around 9,000 pounds of gold. This immense wealth reflects the prosperity and grandeur of Solomon's reign, as well as the queen's recognition of his wisdom and God's blessing upon him. Gold, often associated with royalty and divinity, underscores the king's status and the queen's respect. This act of giving also mirrors the tribute and homage paid to a sovereign, highlighting the political and diplomatic relations of the time. The wealth of Solomon is further emphasized in1 Kings 10:14, where it is noted that Solomon received 666 talents of gold annually.

a great quantity of spices
The mention of a great quantity of spices indicates the luxury and opulence of the gifts brought by the queen. Spices were highly valued in the ancient world, often used in religious rituals, anointing oils, and as a sign of wealth. The specific types of spices are not mentioned, but they likely included frankincense and myrrh, which were common and valuable in trade. The queen's gift signifies not only her wealth but also her desire to honor Solomon with the finest offerings. This exchange also highlights the extensive trade networks of the time, with Sheba being a key player in the spice trade, possibly located in modern-day Yemen or Ethiopia.

and precious stones
Precious stones were another symbol of wealth and status in the ancient Near East. They were used in jewelry, royal adornments, and temple decorations. The inclusion of precious stones in the queen's gifts further emphasizes the richness of her offerings and the esteem in which she held Solomon. These stones could have included gems like sapphires, rubies, or emeralds, which were prized for their beauty and rarity. The use of precious stones in the construction of the temple and Solomon's palace is noted in1 Kings 7:10, reflecting their importance in Israelite culture.

There had never been such spices as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon
This phrase highlights the unparalleled nature of the queen's gift. The spices she brought were of such quality and quantity that they were unmatched in Solomon's experience. This statement underscores the extraordinary nature of the queen's visit and the impact it had on Solomon's court. It also serves to illustrate the fulfillment of God's promise to Solomon regarding his wisdom and wealth, as seen in1 Kings 3:13. The queen's visit and her gifts can be seen as a type of the nations coming to the light of Israel, a theme echoed in prophecies such asIsaiah 60:6, where nations bring gold and incense to honor the Lord.

The Pursuit of Wisdom
The Queen of Sheba's journey to seek Solomon's wisdom underscores the value of pursuing wisdom and understanding. As believers, we are called to seek God's wisdom through His Word and prayer.

The Testimony of God's People
Solomon's reputation for wisdom and wealth drew people from distant lands. Our lives should similarly reflect God's glory, drawing others to seek Him through our testimony.

Lists and Questions
Top 10 Lessons from 2 Chronicles 9

In 2 Chronicles 8:2, Solomon rebuilds cities given by Hiram, yet 1 Kings 9:11-13 implies those cities were unacceptable to him; how can both accounts be accurate?

How many stalls of horses did Solomon have? (1 Kings 4:26 vs. 2 Chronicles 9:25)

How many stalls for horses did Solomon have? Forty thousand (I Kings 4:26) Four thousand (2 chronicles 9:25)

Does the account of the Queen of Sheba's visit in 2 Chronicles 9:1-12 have any historical basis or extra-biblical support?(9)Spices.--B's?mim, from which come our wordsbalsam andbalm.

Great abundance.--See Note on2Chronicles 9:1. Herel?r?b is substituted for the ancientharb?h.

Neither was there any such spice.--Or,there had not been such spicery, i.e., in Jerusalem. A defect in the chronicler's MS. authority probably occasioned this deviation from the phrase which we find in the older text, "There came no more such abundance of spicery" (1Kings 10:10).

Verse 9. -An hundred and twenty talents of gold. Putting the value of gold at £4 per ounce, the value of one talent would be £5476, making a total of £657,120. Poole makes it £1,250,000; S. Clarke, f 720,000. From our vers. 13, 14 we learn that in one year Solomon received 666 talents, beside what merchants brought.Any such spice. The parallel has "no more such abundance of spices," and "of spices very great store." The Arabian spices, and their land and even sea borne fragrance, as also the very lucrative trade they created, are often alluded to by historians (see, among many others, Herod., 3:113; Diod., 3:46; Strabo, 16:4, § 19). Much of all this so-termedgiving was evidently matter ofexchange. The queen gotquid pro quo, while ver. 13 of the parallel (1 Kings 10.) seems to speak of the other truer giving.
