歴代誌Ⅰ 17:1 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Chronicles 17:1-15

Let us observe here, I. How desirous and solicitous good people should be to serve the interests of God's kingdom in the world, to the utmost of their capacity. David could not be easy in a house of cedar while the ark was lodged within curtains, 1 Chron. 17:1. The concerns of the public should always be near our hearts. What pleasure can we take in our own prosperity if we see not the good of Jerusalem? When David is advanced to wealth and power see what his cares and projects are. Not, ?What... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 17:1

EXPOSITION This chapter is paralleled by 2 Samuel 7:1-29 ; and the parallel is for the most part very close. The purport of the two accounts may be said to be identical, while the variations of some few words and sentences just suffice to indicate the somewhat different objects of the two writers, and the very different time when our compiler was having recourse to the common authority. The "good" purpose which was in David's heart is, like many other good purposes, obstructed by the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 17:1-27

Plans for a permanent house (16:37-17:27)On being brought to Jerusalem, the ark had been placed in a tent that David prepared for it (see v. 1). David appointed temple servants to remain with the ark to guide the worship, apparently under the direction of the senior priest, Abiathar. The other chief priest, Zadok, was in charge of the worship at the tabernacle, which was still at Gibeon (37-43).One reason why David did not shift the tabernacle from Gibeon was that he was planning to build a... read more

GOD REJECTS DAVID'S PURPOSE TO BUILD A TEMPLE BUT PROMISES THE MESSIAH WHOSE THRONE WOULD LAST FOREVER;DAVID'S PRAYER OF RESPONSE"And it came to pass, when David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah dwelleth under curtains. And Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thy heart; for God is with thee. And it came to pass the same night, that the Word of God came to Nathan, saying, Go and tell David my... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 17:1

1. as David sat in his house—The details of this chapter were given in nearly similar terms ( :-). The date was towards the latter end of David's reign, for it is expressly said in the former book to have been at the cessation of all his wars. But as to narrate the preparations for the removal of the ark and the erection of the temple was the principal object of the historian, the exact chronology is not followed. read more
