Josephus cited Tyrian court records and the writings of Menander to write that Hiram lived for 53 years and reigned for 34 years, also that the construction of Solomon's Temple began in the twelfth year of Hiram's reign, which was 143 years before the building of Carthage.Josephus, Against Apion i:17,18.

Coogan, A Brief Introduction to the Old Testament page 213–214, Oxford University Press, 2009 David Defeats the Philistines (14:8–17) The passage has similar structures as 2 Samuel 5:17–25 9 ('the advance of the Philistines, an enquiry to God with a positive response and the Philistines' defeat'), with a change of place-name "Geba" to "Gibeon" (verse 16) apparently to fit the perspective of Isaiah 28:21 9 (which refers to the battles in 2 Samuel 5:25 9 and Joshua 10:10 9).Mathys 2007 275 The military successes had an astonishing effect of increasing David's fame (and name) internationally, denoting divine blessings for David.Coogan 2007 599 Hebrew BibleMathys 2007 275 Verse 11 So they went up to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there. Then David said, “God has broken through my enemies by my hand like a breakthrough of water.” Therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.1 Chronicles 14:11 NKJV NKJV "Baal Perazim": literally, "Master of Breakthroughs."Note on 1 Chronicles 14:11 in NKJV YHWH 'has burst out against' the place where the Philistines will be conquered just as he 'burst out against Uzzah' (1 Chronicles 13:11).Mathys 2007 275 The same verb "perez" is also used in 1 Chronicles 13:11 (three times) and 15:13 (cf. Exodus 19:22).Ellicott, C. J. (Ed.) (1905). Ellicott's Bible Commentary for English Readers. 1 Chronicles 13. London : Cassell and Company, Limited, [1905-1906] Online version: (OCoLC) 929526708.
