an hundred talents of silver] A talent of silver is three thousand shekels, as appears, Exod. 38. 25, 26. where six hundred thousand men, at half a shekel apiece, are valued at an hundred talents. The shekel being two shillings and six pence of our money, three hundred shekels make three hundred seventy and five pounds; which, multiplied by an hundred, is thirty seven thousand and five hundred pounds. See 1 Chron. 22. 14. an hundred measures of wheat] Chald. cors. A cor is a measure for dry things, containing ten epha’s. An epha was about a bushel of our measure; so that a cor makes ten bushels: then an hundred cors is a thousand bushels. an hundred baths of wine] A bath was a measure for liquid things, containing as much as an epha did of dry things. Every bath then was eight gallons; which, being multiplied by an hundred, make eight hundred gallons, 1 Kings 7:26. and 1 Kings 3:22.
