For my son , the Chethiv shows "his son," the Keri substituting "my." read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 22:8

Because thou hast shed much blood . This is repeated very distinctly below ( 1 Chronicles 28:3 ), and appears there again as acknowledged by the lip of David himself. It seems remarkable that no previous statement of this objection, nor even allusion to it, is found. Further, there seems no very opportune place for it in either our 1 Chronicles 17:1-15 or in 2 Samuel 7:1-17 . Yet, if it seem impossible to resist the impression that it must have found expression on the occasion referred... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 22:9

Shall be born . This is not the necessary translation of the verb. The form נוֹלָד does not express here future time. Solomon was already born when the word of the Lord came to David. On the other hand, we may suppose special emphasis to belong to the clause, His name shall be Solomon. The name designates the man of peace , and the clause is an announcement, probably intended to throw further into the shade the alternative name Jedidiah , which also had been divinely given ( 2... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 22:8

The word of the Lord came to me ... - Not by Nathan 1 Chronicles 17:4-15, but on some other occasion 1 Chronicles 28:3. On the bloody character of David’s wars, see 2 Samuel 8:2, 2 Samuel 8:5; 2Sa 10:18; 2 Samuel 12:31; and 1 Kings 11:16. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 22:9

For the names of Solomon, compare 2 Samuel 12:24 note. The former name prevailed, probably on account of this prophecy, which attached to the name the promise of a blessing. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 22:8

1 Chronicles 22:8. Thou hast shed blood, &c.; thou shalt not build a house unto my name Not that wars are simply unlawful, but to teach us that the church (whereof the temple was an illustrious type) should be built by Christ, the Prince of peace, Isaiah 9:6, and that it should be gathered and built up, not by might or power, but by God’s Spirit, Zechariah 4:6, and by the preaching the gospel of peace. David therefore was less fit for that service, than one who had not been called... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 22:2-19

22:2-29:30 PREPARATIONS FOR THE TEMPLEDavid’s encouragement to Solomon (22:2-19)God’s purpose was that Solomon, not David, should build the temple. Although David understood the reason for this and accepted it humbly, he did all he could to help Solomon in his task. He gathered construction materials in great quantities, and put all foreigners in Israel to work preparing the stones for building (2-5). Most importantly, he encouraged Solomon to seek wisdom from God and obey his commandments, so... read more
