SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:15
pero mi misericordia no se apartará de él, como la aparté de Saúl, al cual quité de delante de ti.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 7:15
Verse 15. But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul] His house shall be a lasting house, and he shall die in the throne of Israel, his children succeeding him; and the spiritual seed, Christ, possessing and ruling in that throne to the end of time. The family of Saul became totally extinct; the family of David remained till the incarnation. Joseph and Mary were both of that family; Jesus was the only heir to the kingdom of Israel; he did not choose to sit on the secular throne, he ascended the spiritual throne, and now he is exalted to the right hand of God, a PRINCE and a saviour, to give repentance and remission of sins. See the observations at the end of the chapter.
Many have applied these verses and their parallels to support the doctrine of unconditional final perseverance; but with it the text has nothing to do; and were we to press it, because of the antitype, Solomon, the doctrine would most evidently be ruined, for there is neither proof nor evidence of Solomon's salvation.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. But my mercy shall not depart away from him , etc.] Which is not to be understood of special mercy and grace, though it is true of these with respect to Solomon, and so to all the adopted children of God, (see Psalm 89:32,33); but then this here designs such mercy as may be taken away from another, and as it was from Saul, as it follows: as I took [it] from Saul, whom I put away before thee ; and therefore must be understood of his mercy and kindness, in giving him a kingdom, and setting him on the throne; this should not be taken away from him, as it was from Saul, whom God rejected from being king; not him personally, but his posterity; but so the Lord would not do, nor did he, to Solomon, in whose posterity the kingdom of Judah continued to the Babylonish captivity.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 4-17 - Blessings are promised to the family and posterity of David. Thes promises relate to Solomon, David's immediate successor, and the roya line of Judah. But they also relate to Christ, who is often calle David and the Son of David. To him God gave all power in heaven an earth, with authority to execute judgment. He was to build the gospe temple, a house for God's name; the spiritual temple of true believers to be a habitation of God through the Spirit. The establishing of his house, his throne, and his kingdom for ever, can be applied to no othe than to Christ and his kingdom: David's house and kingdom long sinc came to an end. The committing iniquity cannot be applied to the Messiah himself, but to his spiritual seed; true believers have infirmities, for which they must expect to be corrected, though the are not cast off.
