Read John Trapp on 1 Kings 10 →AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 19. The throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side] This description seems to indicate that the throne was in the form of one of our ancient round-topped, two-armed chairs. This throne or chair of state was raised on a platform, the ascent to which consisted of six steps. What we call stays is in the Hebrew ידת yadoth, hands, which serves to confirm the conjecture above.
Read AdamClarke on 1 Kings 10 →CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges19. And the top of the throne was round behind] The word ‘top’ is literally ‘head,’ and points to some erection in the nature of a canopy or baldachino. The roundness here spoken of might either be from the sides of the back being curved inward as they rose up, or from the canopy being arched from behind. This portion of the description is omitted in 2 Chronicles 9:18, but there is added, what we have not here, that ‘a footstool of gold’ was joined to the throne. Josephus omits all mention of the throne, and the LXX. has προτομαὶμόσχων, i.e. ‘heads (projections) of calves,’ having taken φָ ?πεֹ ?μ = ‘round’ as if it were ςֵ ?πֶ ?μ ‘a calf.’
Read Cambridge on 1 Kings 10 →Albert Barnes1798–1870Barnes' Notes on the BibleRepresentations of thrones are frequent in the Egyptian and Assyrian sculptures. They have no steps up to them, but frequently stand upon square bases. The back appears to be flat at the top, not rounded.
Read Albert Barnes on 1 Kings 10 →Daniel Denison Whedon1808–1885Whedon's Commentary on the Bible19. Top of the throne was round behind — That is, it had a curved, or rounded back. Stays — The arms, as those of an easy chair, on which the king, when seated, might rest his hands or arms.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

be-sid': Near to, or close to (Ps 23:2). It is often used to refer to the mental state, to the derangement of the mind (existemi, Mr 3:21; Ac 26:24 the King James Version). Or it may refer to the condition of being out of the ordinary course of the life. A life consecrated to God and spent in the interest of humanity is so designated (2Co 5:13). It has the sense also of a state of being out of one's usual mind, but not of mental derangement, occasioned by something that causes amazement or ast onishment (Mr 5:42).
