Cathedrals Their Use and Abuse 1 Chronicles 22:5 This may be regarded as an utterance not so much prompted by any direct inspiration, as of the instinct of the religious nature that is in man. The most 'magnificent' buildings in the world are those that are or have been connected with religion pagodas, mosques, temples, minsters. I. The first Christians, those of whom we read in the Acts of the Apostles and in the Epistles of St. Paul with their surrounding difficulties of poverty or... read more

IV. PREPARATIONS FOR THE BUILDING OF THE TEMPLE 1. The Preparations and Charge to Solomon CHAPTER 22 1. The material (1 Chronicles 22:1-5 ) 2. The charge to Solomon (1 Chronicles 22:6-16 ) 3. The charge to the princes (1 Chronicles 22:17-19 ) God had accepted the sacrifice. The judgment had passed. Prayer had been answered and David, therefore, could truthfully say “this is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt-offering for Israel.” The place had therefore been... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 22:1-19

DAVID ’S REIGN THE DOWNFALL OF SAUL (1 Chronicles 10:0 ) In reading this chapter with whose general contents we became familiar in 1 Samuel 31:0 , it is important to note the inspired comment at its close (1 Chronicles 10:13-14 ). DAVID’S HEROES (1 Chronicles 11-12) In the history of David in this book, the writer dwells chiefly on its prosperous side, passing over the rest as lightly as possible. His anointing at Hebron (1 Chronicles 11:1-3 ) reveals nothing of what we learned earlier of... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 22:6-16

The time of this address of David to his son, as well as the occasion, being, as we are told, just before his death, gives great weight and energy to it. It is indeed a most interesting address from a father to a son. Like a parent anxious for his son's welfare, and in that grand point, which of all others is most interesting, David charges Solomon to be very attentive in this business, to which the Lord had called him. There is a beautiful intimation which David gives to Solomon, in that the... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 22:6-16

6-16 David gives Solomon the reason why he should build the temple. Because God named him. Nothing is more powerful to engage us in any service for God, than to know that we are appointed thereto. Because he would have leisure and opportunity to do it. He should have peace and quietness. Where God gives rest, he expects work. Because God had promised to establish his kingdom. God's gracious promises should quicken and strengthen our religious service. David delivered to Solomon an account of... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - 1 Chronicles 22:6-19

David's Instructions to Solomon v. 6. Then he called for Solomon, his son, while he was still in possession of all his faculties, and charged him, with all earnestness and solemnity, to build an house for the Lord God of Israel. v. 7. And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the Lord, my God; he emphasizes this point as one of the supreme desires of his life, the one great unfulfilled wish of his career; v. 8. but the word of the... read more

1 Chronicles DAVID’S PROHIBITED DESIRE AND PERMITTED SERVICE 1Ch_22:6 - 1Ch_22:16 . This passage falls into three parts. In 1Ch_22:6 - 1Ch_22:10 the old king tells of the divine prohibition which checked his longing to build the Temple; in 1Ch_22:11 - 1Ch_22:13 he encourages his more fortunate successor, and points him to the only source of strength for his happy task; in 1Ch_22:14 - 1Ch_22:16 he enumerates the preparations which he had made, the possession of which laid stringent... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 22:1-19

In the place where the mercy of God operated in staying the plague resulting from his sin, David chose to build the house of his God. The threshing floor of Oman the Jebusite was chosen as the site of the Temple. The days were rapidly passing, and the end of David's life was not far off. During these latter days his underlying desire became the supreme matter. In perfect acquiescence with the will of God, he gave up all thought of building, and set himself to preparing everything for another... read more
