The term forced labor describes the group of men whom Solomon required to work for him. The author provides a fuller description of this system in 5:13–18. If your readers would not be familiar with the term forced labor, you could use the name of a similar system that your readers would recognize, or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: [the levy] or [the compulsory labor force]
