Kommentar zu Könige I 3:9

This great people of Yours. Since they are many, they have many dealings, and they come to litigate and I have no time to deliberate over their arguments. Another interpretation of, “for who is able to judge this great people of Yours,” their legal decisions are very difficult [for me to make]. If a lawsuit comes before me between two non-Jews, and I take from one and give to the other unjustly, I will not be punished. But [if a lawsuit comes before me] between Jews [and I take from one and give to the other unjustly], I will be punished for it with capital punishment,¹⁹That is why Shlomo refers to the Bnei Yisroel as a “weighty [=כבד] nation.” as it is stated, “And He takes the lives of those that steal from them.”²⁰Mishlei 22:23.
