1 KINGS 14:26 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house; he even took away all: and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.”
And he took the fortified cities which belonged to Judah and came as far as Jerusalem — Shishak systematically conquers the Judahite fortress system, penetrating Jerusalem itself. The phrase וַיִּלְכֹּד אֶת־עָרֵי הַמִּבְצָר (he took the fortified cities) shows methodical conquest.
