SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:1
¶ Dijo también el rey David a toda la asamblea: A solo Salomón mi hijo ha elegido Dios; él es joven y tierno, y la obra es grande; porque la casa no es para hombre, sino para el SEÑOR Dios.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 29:1
Verse 1. The palace is not for man] "The palace is not prepared for the name of a son of man, but for the name of the Word of the Lord God." -T.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 1. Furthermore, David the king said unto all the congregation , etc.] Having finished what he had to say to Solomon, he addressed the congregation again: Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen ; both to be king, and to build the temple is yet young and tender ; (see 1 Chronicles 22:5) and the work is great ; both of governing so great a people, and of building so magnificent a temple, especially the latter is meant: for the palace is not for man ; for any mortal king, though ever so great: but for the Lord God ; the Targum is, ``but for the Word of the Lord God,” who is the King of kings, and Lord of lords; and therefore is to be built as with the greatest exactness, according to the pattern he himself has given, so with the greatest splendour and magnificence.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-9 - What is done in works of piety and charity, should be done willingly not by constraint; for God loves a cheerful giver. David set a goo example. This David offered, not from constraint, or for show; but because he had set his affection to the house of God, and thought he could never do enough towards promoting that good work. Those who woul draw others to good, must lead the way themselves.
