TSK - 2 CHRONICLES 6

  1  Solomon, having blessed the people, blesses God.
12  Solomon's prayer in the consecration of the temple, upon
    the brasen scaffold, etc.


VERSE 1
- The Lord.
   * Ex 20:21; 24:15-18 Le 16:2 De 4:11 1Ki 8:12-21 Ps 18:8-11; 97:2
   * Na 1:3 Heb 12:18

 - I have built.
   * 2Ch 2:4-6 2Sa 7:13 1Ki 8:13 1Ch 17:12; 22:10,11; 28:6,20 Ps 132:5
   * Ps 132:13,14 Joh 4:21-23 Heb 9:11,12 Re 21:3


VERSE 3 
 - turned his face.
   * 1Ki 8:14
- blessed.

   * 2Sa 7:6,7 1Ki 8:16
- my name.
   * Ex 20:24; 23:21 De 12:5,11 Da 9:19
- neither chose.
  The judges and Saul were chosen by God, for a season, to be
  rulers of Israel; but not to establish a permanent and
  hereditary authority over that people, as was the case with
  David.  This clause is wanting in the parallel passage of
  Kings; but it helps to clear the sense.

   * 1Sa 10:24; 13:13,14; 15:23 2Sa 7:15,16


VERSE 6 
 - But I have chosen Jerusalem.
  This clause is also not found in Kings.  Jerusalem was
  expressly marked out, by the building of the temple, to be the
  center of the worship of Israel; as Jehovah had before spoken
  by Moses:  see the parallel passages.

   * 2Ch 12:13 Ps 48:1; 78:68-70; 132:13 Isa 14:32

VERSE 11 
 - I put the ark.
   * 2Ch 5:7,10 Ex 40:20 1Ki 8:9,21 Heb 9:4

  consequently they are called the covenant, i.e., a sign of the

   * Ac 7:48,49; 17:24
- heaven.
  {Hashshamayim ooshemey hashshamayim} "the heavens and the
  heavens of heavens;" which words seem to imply that there are
  systems and systems of systems, each possessing its sun, its
  primary and secondary planets; all extending beyond each other
  in unlimited space, in the same regular and graduated order
  which we find to prevail in our solar system; which, probably,
  in its thousands of millions of miles in diameter, is, to some
  others, no more than the area of the lunar orbit to that of
  Georgium Sidus.
