1 Chronicles 17
1. Nathan first approving the purpose of David, to build God a house
3. after by the word of God forbids him
11. He promises him blessings and benefits in his seed
16. David's prayer and thanksgiving














(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" (1Chronicles 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. 1Kings 2:2 : "Go the way of all the earth.")

Which shall be (shall arise or come, Genesis 17:16) of thy sons.--Samuel has the more original, "which shall go forth from thy bowels." The chronicler has paraphrased this, to suit the taste of a later age.

His kingdom.--Heb., malk-tho--a later word than the synonym in Samuel (mamlakhto). . . .

Verse 11. - The promise is now, not to "David and his seed," but to David personally. The verse contains, no doubt, the original of the Apostle Peter's quotation (Acts 2:29, 30; see also Acts 13:34; Luke 1:32, 33). The last clause of this verse has Solomon, for the object of its pronoun "his."
