8 And he built H1129 the city H5892 round about, H5439 even from Millo H4407 round about: H5439 and Joab H3097 repaired H2421 the rest H7605 of the city. H5892
And all the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 gathered together, H622 and all the house H1004 of Millo, H4407 H1037 and went, H3212 and made H4427 Abimelech H40 king, H4428 by the plain H436 of the pillar H5324 that was in Shechem. H7927
But if not, let fire H784 come out H3318 from Abimelech, H40 and devour H398 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 and the house H1004 of Millo; H4407 H1037 and let fire H784 come out H3318 from the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 and from the house H1004 of Millo, H4407 H1037 and devour H398 Abimelech. H40
And this was the cause H1697 that he lifted up H7311 his hand H3027 against the king: H4428 Solomon H8010 built H1129 Millo, H4407 and repaired H5462 the breaches H6556 of the city H5892 of David H1732 his father. H1
And his servants H5650 arose, H6965 and made H7194 a conspiracy, H7195 and slew H5221 Joash H3101 in the house H1004 of Millo, H4407 H1037 which goeth down H3381 to Silla. H5538
And he spake H559 before H6440 his brethren H251 and the army H2428 of Samaria, H8111 and said, H559 What do H6213 these feeble H537 Jews? H3064 will they fortify H5800 themselves? will they sacrifice? H2076 will they make an end H3615 in a day? H3117 will they revive H2421 the stones H68 out of the heaps H6194 of the rubbish H6083 which are burned? H8313

Commentary on 1 Chronicles 11 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 11
In this chapter is repeated,
1Ch 11:1-9
David is here brought to the possession.
1Ch 11:10-47
We have here an account of David's worthies, the great men of his time that served him and were preferred by him. The first edition of this catalogue we had, 2 Sa. 23:8, etc. This is much the same, only that those named here from v. 41 to the end are added. Observe,
