4 He also provided more cedar logs than could be counted, for the Sidonians and Tyrians had brought large numbers of them to David.
4 Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
4 and cedar timbers without number, for the Sidonians and Tyrians brought great quantities of cedar to David.
4 and cedar logs past counting (the Sidonians and Tyrians shipped in huge loads of cedar logs for David).
4 and cedar trees in abundance; for the Sidonians and those from Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
4 He also provided innumerable cedar logs, for the men of Tyre and Sidon had brought vast amounts of cedar to David.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:4
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:1-5
(Read 1 Chronicles 22:1-5)
On occasion of the terrible judgment inflicted on Israel for the sin of David, God pointed out the place where he would have the temple built; upon which, David was excited to make preparations for the great work. David must not build, but he would do all he could; he prepared abundantly before his death. What our hands find to do for God, and our souls, and those round us, let us do it with all our might, before our death; for after death there is no device nor working. And when the Lord refuses to employ us in those services which we desired, we must not be discouraged or idle, but do what we can, though in a humbler sphere.
