Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 25. - Four thousand stalls. Not forty thousand, as by error in 1 Kings 4:26. The parallel mentions one thousand four hundred as the number of the chariots (2 Chronicles 1:14). Both agree in twelve thousand as the number of horsemen. Chariot cities (1 Kings 9:19; 2 Chronicles 1:14). Some of the horse and chariot depots were kept near the king, but the rest in those specially chosen and prepared cities, which might be nearest or fittest against time of war-need.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(25) And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.--See 1Kings 4:26 (where the number of stalls is erroneously stated at 40,000).The remainder of the verse coincides with 1Kings 10:26.Having already given an account of Solomon's chariots and horses, and his importation of the latter from Egypt, in 2Chronicles 1:14-17, an account which is identical with 1Kings 10:26-29, the chronicler naturally avoids mere repetition of that passage in 2Chronicles 9:25-28. . . .
