4:1 All Israel - This is spoken with respect to his successors, who were kings only over a part, and that the smallest part of it.

4:1-19 In the choice of the great officers of Solomon's court, no doubt, his wisdom appeared. Several are the same that were in his father's time. A plan was settled by which no part of the country was exhausted to supply his court, though each sent its portion.
