Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart. For it was all of God, a peculiar gift of his; by "all the earth" is meant the inhabitants of it, and only them, and those the more principal; who came from the several parts of it, hearing the fame of his wisdom, to know the truth of it, and to improve themselves by it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the marginal references. By “all the earth” we are, of course, only to understand the kings or people of neighboring nations.
