Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone--Nothing else was ever in the ark, the articles mentioned (Heb 9:4) being not in, but by it, being laid in the most holy place before the testimony (Exo 16:33; Num 17:10). |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Comparing this statement with Heb 9:4, it would seem that Solomon, now that the sacred chest had reached its final resting-place, and stood in a large chamber surrounded by tables Ch2 4:8, removed the pot of manna and the rod from the interior, and set them elsewhere in the holy of holies. |
Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
Nothing - Strictly and properly: but in a more large sense, the pot of manna, and Aaron's rod were also in it, Heb 9:4, that is, by it, in the most holy place, before the ark of the testimony, where God commanded Moses to put them. |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
Save the two tables of stone - See my notes on Heb 9:4 (note). |
