Iddo] Hebrew Jedai or Jedo (probably a misspelling); compare xii. 15.
³⁰And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.
30. forty years] The number is a round number; compare Judges iii. 30, v. 31, viii. 28, xiii. 1.
³¹And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
31. slept with his fathers] This formula is not used of David (1 Chronicles xxix. 28), doubtless because David’s father was not a king!
in the city of David] 1 Chronicles xi. 7.
