John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 29:29
Now the acts of David the king, first and last ,.... All that he did that was memorable, both before he was king, and when king in Hebron, and then in Jerusalem: behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer ; which were journals of his life and actions, begun by Samuel, and carried on by Nathan and Gad; out of which what is recorded in canonical Scripture was taken by divine direction, and preserved, while... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 29:28
And he died - David, at his death, had every thing that his heart could wish. A good old age, having lived as long as living could be desirable, and having in the main enjoyed good health. Full of days; having lived till he saw every thing that he lived for either accomplished or in a state of forwardness. Full of riches; witness the immense sums left for the temple. 4. Full of honorer; having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did, either before his time or since -... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 29:29
The acts of David - first and last - Those which concerned him in private life, as well as those which grew out of his regal government. All these were written by three eminent men, personally acquainted with him through the principal part of his life; these were Samuel and Gad the seers, and Nathan the prophet. These writings are all lost, except the particulars interspersed in the books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles, none of which are the records mentioned here. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 29:30
The times that went over him - The transactions of his reign, and the occurrences and vicissitudes in his own kingdom, as well as those which were over all the kingdoms of the countries, i.e., in the surrounding nations, in most of which David had a share during his forty years' reign. Relative to the character of David, see a few remarks in the note on 1 Kings 2:10 ; (note); and see more at the end of the Psalms. Dr. Delaney gives a just view of his character in a few words:... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 29:26
The words of this verse, not indeed hard to follow here, but marking the close instead of the commencement or career of David's reign over all Israel , are paralleled by the earlier passage, 1 Chronicles 18:14 ; 2 Samuel 8:15 . read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Chronicles 29:23-30
These verses bring king Solomon to his throne and king David to his grave. Thus the rising generation thrusts out that which went before, and says, ?Make room for us.? Every one has his day. I. Here is Solomon rising (1 Chron. 29:23): Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord. Not his throne which he prepared in the heavens, but the throne of Israel is called the throne of the Lord because not only is he King of all nations, and all kings rule under him, but he was in a peculiar manner King of... read more
