תלמוד על שמואל ב 8:4

“He shall not add horses over and above what he needs for his chariots.” As in David destroyed all the chariots,¹⁸⁰2S. 8:4. As usual, the argument is about the part of the verse which is not quoted: but he reserved from them 100 chariots. This shows that chariots and horses needed for the army are permitted. etc. “And silver and gold he shall not add excessively over and above what he needs for his payroll.” Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, but only for this year’s payroll.
