Charles Ellicott Commentary 1 Kings 1:46

"And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom." — 1 Kings 1:46 (ASV)

And also Solomon sitteth.—Jonathan’s announcement here takes up the narrative of events after 1 Kings 1:40. The public enthronement in the palace (ordered by David in 1 Kings 1:35) follows the anointing and acceptance by the acclamations of the people, as an integral part of the inauguration of royalty.
