# silver was not considered valuable in Solomon's days
|
|
|
|
Silver was so common in Solomon's days that if a king wanted to show his wealth, he would not do it by making things out of silver. Instead he would use gold, which was less common and more valuable. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "people did not value silver so much" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
