Context — The Death of Solomon
27The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as abundant as sycamore in the foothills.
28Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from all the lands.
29As for the rest of the acts of Solomon, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Records of Nathan the Prophet, in the Prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the Visions of Iddo the Seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
30Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years. 31And Solomon rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David. And his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.Cross References

2 Chronicles 9:29 Summary
This verse tells us that there is more to the story of King Solomon's life and reign than what is written in the Bible. The Records of Nathan the Prophet, the Prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and the Visions of Iddo the Seer are all sources of information that provide additional details and context about Solomon's life, as seen in other parts of the Bible, such as 1 Kings 11:41 and 2 Chronicles 12:15. This reminds us that the Bible is a historical and reliable account of God's interactions with humanity, and that there may be more to the story than what we read in Scripture, as seen in (John 21:25) and (Acts 17:11). By referencing these other sources, the Bible is showing us that it is committed to accuracy and truth, and that we can trust its account of history, just like we trust (Psalm 119:105) to guide us in our understanding of God's Word.

Gill's Exposition on 2 Chronicles 9:29
[See comments on 1 Kings 11:41]
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 9:29
Iddo the seer, mentioned also , supposed to be the same who is called Obed, . This, and the other prophets mentioned, were also historians, and wrote some annals or histories of their times; out of which these sacred and canonical books were taken, either by these or other prophets.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 9:29
2 Chronicles 9:29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, [are] they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat?Ver. 29. Now the rest, &c.] And worst. See 1 Kings 11:41. First and last.] His first were best: of his last this historian saith nothing, but layeth his finger on the scar. In the book of Nathan.] In part of the First Book of Kings, written by these three prophets.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 9:29
(c) TO .—CLOSE OF THE REIGN (2 Chronicles 9:29-31). (Comp. 1 Kings 11:41-43.) (29) Now the rest of the acts of Solomon.—Or, story, history; literally, words. (Comp. 1 Chronicles 29:29.) First and last.—Or, the former and the latter. Instead of this, Kings has, “and all that he did, and his wisdom.” In the book.—Or, history. For the sources named here, see the Introduction. Kings has simply, “are they not written in the book of the history of Solomon? “His name conveyed the idea of peace to the Hebrew ear. But there is no doubt that it was originally identical with Shalman (Assyrian Salmânu), the name of a god. Tiglath-pileser II. mentions a Salamânu king of Moab. This name exactly corresponds to Solomon. Ahijah the Shilonite.—See 1 Kings 11:29-39; 1 Kings 14:2-18.
Iddo.—Hebrew, Ie‘dî or Ie‘dô. This seer is not mentioned in Kings. (See 2 Chronicles 12:15; 2 Chronicles 13:22 for further references to his works.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 9:29
Verse 29. Nathan the prophet] These books are all lost. See the account of Solomon, his character, and a review of his works, at the end of 1Kg 11:43. I. By the kindness of a learned friend, who has made this kind of subjects his particular study, I am able to give a more correct view of the value of the talent of gold and the talent of silver than that which I have quoted 1Kg 10:17, from Mr. Reynold's State of the Greatest King. 1. To find the equivalent in British standard to an ounce troy of pure gold, valued at eighty shillings, and to a talent of the same which weighs one thousand eight hundred ounces troy. The ounce contains four hundred and eighty grains, and the guinea weighs one hundred and twenty-nine grains, or five pennyweights and nine grains. (1) As 129 grains : 21 shillings :: 480, the number of grains in an ounce : 78.1395348s. or 3l. 18s. 1d. 2.69767q.; the equivalent in our silver coin to one ounce of standard gold. (2) As 78.1395348 shillings, the value of an ounce of standard gold, : 80 shillings, the value of an ounce troy of pure gold, :: 80 shillings : 81.9047619 shillings, the equivalent in British standard to one ounce of pure gold.
Instead of the preceding, the following proportions may be used: - (1) As 21.5 shillings : 21 shillings :: 80 shillings : 78.1395348 shillings. This multiplied by 1800, the number of troy ounces in a Hebrew talent, gives 140651.16264s. or 7032l. 11s. 1d. 3.8q., the equivalent to one talent of standard gold. (2) As 21 standard : 21.5 pure :: 80 pure : 81.9047619 standard. This multiplied by 1800 gives 147428.67142s. or 7371l. 8s. 6d. 3.4q., the equivalent to one talent of pure gold. 2. To find the equivalent in British standard to a talent of pure silver, which is valued at four hundred and fifty pounds sterling, or five shillings the ounce troy. The pound troy Isaiah 240 pennyweights; and our silver coin has 18 pennyweights of alloy in the pound. From 240 pennyweights take 18, and there will remain 222 pennyweights, the pure silver in the pound. Now as 240 pennyweights : 222 pennyweights :: 20 pennyweights, the weight of a crown piece, : 18 1/2 pennyweights, the weight of the pure silver in the crown. Then, as 18.5 pennyweights : 6 shillings :: 36000, the number of dwts. in a talent,: 9729.729729729729 shillings, or £486 9s. 8 3/4d., the equivalent in our coin to a talent of pure silver. Example 1.
To find the equivalent in British standard to the one hundred and twenty talents of gold which the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon, 2 Chronicles 9:9. 147428.57142s. equivalent to one talent of pure gold, 120 number of talents [as found above. _____________ 17691428.5704 = £884,571 8s. 6 3/4d., the equivalent to 120 talents. Example 2.
