1 Kings 14:25-29
Verse 26. He took away the treasures] All the treasures which Solomon had amassed, both in the temple and in his own houses; a booty the most immense ever acquired in one place. All the shields of gold which Solomon had made.] These were three hundred in number, and were all made of beaten gold. See a computation of their value in Clarke's note on "1Ki 10:17". Verse 28. The guard bare them] The guard probably were just three hundred, answering to the number of the shields.
