Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 1:15

"And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundance." — 2 Chronicles 1:15 (ASV)

Silver and gold ... stones ... cedar trees. —Each of these words has the definite article in the Hebrew.

And gold. —Not in 1 Kings 10:27, with which the rest of the verse coincides; nor in 2 Chronicles 9:27. The Syriac omits it here also, but the other versions have it, and the phrase is a natural heightening of the hyperbole.

The sycomore trees that are in the vale. —(Compare to 1 Chronicles 27:28.) The Syriac reads instead: As the sand which is on the seashore.
