2 Chronicles 8:4
"And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And built Tadmor in the wilderness,.... Of which See Gill on Kg1 9:18 . and all the storehouses which he built in Hamath; a country in Syria, which he made

himself master of, and where he laid up store of provision and ammunition to keep it, should any attempt be made to rescue it out of his hands. According to an Arabic writer (a), Solomon in the twenty fourth year of his reign having demolished Antioch, built seven cities, of which Tadmor was one. (a) Abulpharag. Hist. Dynast. dyn. 3. p. 53.
