Parvaim or Pharaoh Aim?
At 2 Chronicles 3:6-7 this translation says:
‘Using gold that he (Solomon) got from Pharaoh Aim’
This is different from most other Bibles, which say the gold came from a land called Parvaim. However, nobody can identify such a land.
The issue may be cleared up by the Greek Septuagint. In that verse, it uses the word Pharou/aim. This appears to refer to Pharaoh Amenemnisu of the 21st Dynasty of ancient Egypt, whose reign (1051/1047 BC) is very close to one calculation for the reign of Solomon. Egyptologists also say that he may be the same person as Pharaoh Amenemope, who is said to have reigned until 992 BC.
