Barnes' Notes
Elath, or Eloth (marginal reference I Kings 9:26), was near Ezion-Geber, in the Gulf of Akabah. It had been lost to the Jews on the revolt of Edom from Joram II Kings 8:22. Uzziah' s re-establishment of the place, rendered possible by his father' s successes II Kings 14:7, was one of his first acts, and seems to imply a desire to renew the commercial projects which Solomon had successfully carried out, and which Jehoshaphat had vainly attempted I Kings 22:48.
