9.21 Siquidem naves regis ibant in Tharsis, etc. RAB. Christus apostolos doctores Evangelii, quos de Judæis elegit, cum prædicatoribus de gentibus electis trina confessione, sed una fide in mundum mittit, ut in credentibus afferant sibi aurum sapietiæ, argentum eloquentiæ, et ebur castitatis. Simia autem est animal ingeniosum, et hominis imitatorium, et philosophos significare potest, qui veræ sapientiæ sensus aliquando mutant, et in disciplinis moralis vitæ edisserunt actus. Pavo, qui laudatas ostendit pennas, eos significat qui propter laudes hominum variarum virtutum species ostentant; sed prædicatorum doctrina instructi discunt benefacere intuitu solius Dei, et aptantur æterni regis deliciis.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:21 Solomon’s fleet of trading ships of Tarshish was used to transport cargo. The peculiar shape of these strong ships allowed them to sail long distances in the open sea.
• and peacocks: The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain. Solomon was so great that he imported fine goods and exotic animals from the farthest reaches of the known world.

It is not certain whether the word translated as “apes” here refers to apes, baboons, or monkeys. It is not certain whether the word translated as “baboons” here refers to baboons or peacocks. This can be translated more generally as “animals from far away” or “animals from Africa.”
