Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Chronicles 28:1-10

A great deal of service David had done in his day, had served his generation according to the will of God, Acts 13:36. But now the time draws night that he must die, and, as a type of the Son of David, the nearer he comes to his end the more busy he is, and does his work with all his might. He is now a little recovered from the indisposition mentioned 1 Kgs. 1:1; when they covered him with clothes, and he got no heat: but was cure is there for old age? He therefore improves his recovery, as... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 28:9

And thou, Solomon my son ,.... Who was present in this assembly, and presented to them by David as his successor, and their future king: and having addressed them, he turns himself to him, and exhorts him, saying: know thou the God of thy father ; who was his Father and covenant God, and whom he served and worshipped, and who had bestowed upon him many favours, both temporal and spiritual; and having had such an experience of his goodness, he exhorts his son to seek to know more and more... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 28:8-10

The double charge of these verses, first to the people and then to Solomon, is full of force and majesty. Translate, Now therefore in the sight of all Israel—the congregation of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God ("Hear me," 1 Chronicles 28:2 ), keep ye and study to do all the commandments of the Lord your God ( Deuteronomy 4:21 , Deuteronomy 4:26 ; Deuteronomy 30:19 ; Le 25:46; Jeremiah 3:18 ).

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 28:9

Know thou the God of thy father - “Knowing God,” in the sense of having a religious trust in Him, is an unusual phrase in the earlier Scriptures. It scarcely occurs elsewhere in the historical books. David, however, uses the phrase in his Psalms Psalms 36:10; and its occurrence here may be accepted as evidence that the entire speech is recorded in the actual words of the monarch. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 28:9

1 Chronicles 28:9. Know thou the God of thy father Thou knowest that there is a God, a living and true God, and that the God of thy father is that God: thou knowest not only that he is, but what he is: that he is a Spirit, an infinite and eternal Spirit, self-existent, and therefore independent of, and supreme over, all other beings, who are only the workmanship of his hands. Thou knowest that he is possessed of all possible perfections, of unsearchable wisdom, of almighty power, of... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 28:1-21

Solomon presented to the people (28:1-29:30)David had been forced to appoint Solomon as king hastily when he learnt that another son, Adonijah, was plotting to seize the throne for himself (see notes on 1 Kings 1:5-53). That very unceremonious anointing of Solomon was followed soon after by a second anointing, this time with full religious and regal ceremony (see 29:22). This second occasion is the one that the Chronicler refers to here. David presented Solomon to the people as the one who, by... read more
