Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 1 Chronicles 17:11

(11) Omit the mark indicating the beginning of a paragraph (¶).And it shall come to pass.—In accordance with the promise, “The Lord will build thee an house” (1 Chronicles 17:10). The phrase is wanting in Samuel, and should probably be supplied, with LXX.Be expired.—Are fulfilled (perfect; Samuel has imperfect tense).That thou must go to be with thy fathers.—Literally, to go with thy fathers—an unusual expression, for which Samuel has the ordinary, “and thou lie down with thy fathers.” (Comp. 1... read more

Cedar and Curtains 1 Chronicles 17:1-4 ; 1 Chronicles 17:10 'Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, "Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord remaineth under curtains".' David is troubled by the disparity between his own surroundings and those of the Ark. I. We have here a somewhat unusual spectacle; this discontent arises with the king and not with the prophet; the political ruler, and not the spiritual... read more

7. The Covenant and the Promise CHAPTER 17 1. David’s plan to build a house (1 Chronicles 17:1-6 ) 2. The covenant and the promise (1 Chronicles 17:7-15 ) 3. David’s praise and prayer (1 Chronicles 17:16-27 ) After the ark had found its resting place in a tent the king became deeply concerned about the building of a house. He contrasted his own house of cedars with the humble dwelling place of the ark of the covenant. The desire to build a house for the Lord was expressed to Nathan, who... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 17:1-27

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

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Chronicles 17:1-27

The Sanctification of Life 1 Chronicles 17:0 WHEN it is said that David "sat in his house," the literal meaning is that he "dwelt" there. To understand the whole action properly we must refer to the last verse of the preceding chapter, in which "David returned to bless his house." David then was dwelling in a sanctified house, and was under the influence of all the suggestions which are associated with such a habitation. We cannot sanctify any one point of life without the sanctifying... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 17:3-15

But, Reader, if we pause to admire the conduct of Nathan, what a pause of admiration ought we to make here, in contemplating the goodness, the grace, the condescension, (what shall I call it) the astonishing condescension of a most gracious God. Oh! Reader! who hath ever calculated, what breast of an angel hath ever fully conceived the astonishing subject, that the High and Holy One, which inhabiteth eternity, should ever look upon, much less dwell with, and yet more dwell in the human mind!... read more

David Accepts God's Promises With Thankfulness v. 10. Furthermore I tell thee that the Lord will build thee an house. (Cf with the entire passage 2 Samuel 7:12-Joel :, and note that the peculiarity of prophecy to combine thoughts near at hand with those afar off is very marked in this paragraph. ) v. 11. And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, to await the great resurrection of the dead, that I will raise up thy Seed after thee, which... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 17:1-27

The presence of the Ark in the city seems to have created in David the desire to provide for it a permanent and more worthy resting place. He declared his desire to Nathan. The prophet, acting without divine consultation, charged him to go forward. It was a perfectly natural piece of advice, as on the surface the desire of David would necessarily appear to be absolutely commendable. Both prophet and king, however, had to learn that God's ways are not man's ways. David was brought into the... read more
