Commentary

And the Lord stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite ,.... Though he did not take his kingdom from him for his sin, he chastised him with the rod of men, as he said he would; suffering one, and then another, to rise up and disturb his peace in his old age, see Sa2 7:14 . he was of the king's seed in Edom; of the blood royal.
