1 Chr 22:1

Back to Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

1Chr 22:1 David, foreknowing the place of the temple, prepares abundance for the building of it.

1Chr 22:6 He instructs Solomon in God's promises, and his duty in building the temple.

1Chr 22:17 He charges the princes to assist his son.

This is the house.

David perhaps had some assurance that this was the place on which God designed that His house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a structure.

and this is the altar.
