Rashi on I Kings
And one officer over the land. Rav and Shmuel have differing opinions, one says, one was appointed over all of them, and this was Azaryoh[u] the son of Noson, who was mentioned previously,6Above v. 5. and one says he was [appointed] for the thirteenth month.7I.e., the purpose of appointing a thirteenth officer was to take care of the king for the thirteenth month of a leap year.
