1 Solomon, having blessed the people, blesses God.12 Solomon's prayer in the consecration of the temple, upon the brasen scaffold, etc. The Lord.Ex 20:21; 24:15-18; Le 16:2; De 4:11; 1Ki 8:12-21; Ps 18:8-11; 97:2Na 1:3; Heb 12:18 I have built.2:4-6; 2Sa 7:13; 1Ki 8:13; 1Ch 17:12; 22:10,11; 28:6,20; Ps 132:5Ps 132:13,14; Joh 4:21-23; Heb 9:11,12; Re 21:3 turned his face.1Ki 8:14blessed.29:29; Nu 6:23-27; Jos 22:6; 1Ki 8:55-61; 1Ch 16:2; Lu 24:50,51all the congregation.1Ki 8:14; Ne 8:5-7; Mt 13:2 Blessed.1Ki 8:15; 1Ch 29:10,20; Ps 41:13; 68:4,32-35; 72:18,19; Lu 1:68,69Eph 1:3who hath with.1Ch 17:12; Ps 138:1,2; Mt 24:35; Lu 1:70 Since the day.2Sa 7:6,7; 1Ki 8:16my name.Ex 20:24; 23:21; De 12:5,11; Da 9:19neither 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 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 centre of the worship of Israel; as Jehovah had before spoken by Moses: see the parallel passages. 12:13; Ps 48:1; 78:68-70; 132:13; Isa 14:32chosen David.1Sa 16:1; 1Ch 28:4; Ps 89:19,20 2Sa 7:2,3; 1Ki 5:3; 8:17; 1Ch 17:1; 22:7; 28:2-4 thou didst well.1Ki 8:18-21; Mr 14:8; 2Co 8:12 thy son.2Sa 7:12,13; 1Ch 17:4,11,12 performed his word.4I am risen.1:1; 1Ki 2:12; 3:6,7; 1Ch 29:15,23; Ec 1:4; 2:18,19as the Lord.1Ch 17:11; 28:5 I put the ark.5:7,10; Ex 40:20; 1Ki 8:9,21; Heb 9:4the covenant.As "there was nothing in the ark but the two tables of stone," consequently they are called the covenant, i.e., a sign of the covenant. he stood.1Ki 8:22-53; 2Ki 11:14; 23:3; Ps 29:1,2spread forth.Ex 9:33; Job 11:13; Ps 28:2; 63:4; 68:31; 141:2; 143:6; Isa 50:101Ti 2:8 scaffold.Ne 8:4long.
