1 Kings 8:19

Nevertheless thou shalt not build the house [Wordsworth observes that it was filial reverence prevented Solomon's mentioning the cause of this prohibition which, however, is mentioned with appropriate humility by David himself ( 1 Chronicles 22:8 ) ]; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name. [ 2 Samuel 7:11 , 2 Samuel 7:12 . The recurrence of "the name" of the Lord is to be noticed (see 2 Samuel 7:16 , 2 Samuel 7:17 , 2 Samuel 7:18 , 2 Samuel 7:29 , 48, etc.) The name of God is the expression to man of Has nature, attributes, etc.]
