Solomon had twelve deputies over all Israel, who provided for the king and his household; each man had to provide for a month in the year.

Those deputies provided for King Solomon and all who came to King Solomon’s table, each in his month; they left nothing lacking.

besides Solomon’s 3,300 chief deputies who were over the project and who ruled over the people who were doing the work.
