Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6-16) David gives formal charge to Solomon to build the Temple.(6) Then he called.--And he called Solomon. When? After completing his preparations, and shortly before his death (1Chronicles 22:5). (Comp. 1Kings 2:1-9, especially 1Chronicles 22:3-4, of which we seem to hear echoes in the present speech.) Upon grounds of internal evidence we may pronounce this dying address of David to be an ideal composition, put into the king's mouth by the unknown author whose work the chronicler follows: or rather, perhaps, by the chronicler himself, whose style is evident throughout. (Comp. the addresses attributed to David in 1 Chronicles 28)For the Lord God of Israel.--There ought to be a comma after "Lord." Literally the phrase would run, For Jehovah, the God of Israel. Thus the stress lies on the national aspect of the Deity, for whom Solomon was to undertake this national work.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThen [David] called forוַיִּקְרָ֖א (way·yiq·rā)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 7121: To call, proclaim, readhis sonבְנ֑וֹ (ḇə·nōw)Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singularStrong's 1121: A sonSolomonלִשְׁלֹמֹ֣ה (liš·lō·mōh)Preposition-l | Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 8010: Solomon -- David's son and successor to his throneand instructedוַיְצַוֵּ֙הוּ֙ (way·ṣaw·wê·hū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Piel - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular | third person masculine singularStrong's 6680: To lay charge (upon), give charge (to), command, orderhim to buildלִבְנ֣וֹת (liḇ·nō·wṯ)Preposition-l | Verb - Qal - Infinitive constructStrong's 1129: To builda houseבַּ֔יִת (ba·yiṯ)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1004: A housefor the LORD,לַיהוָ֖ה (Yah·weh)Preposition-l | Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelthe Godאֱלֹהֵ֥י (’ĕ·lō·hê)Noun - masculine plural constructStrong's 430: gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlativeof Israel.יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ (yiś·rā·’êl)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3478: Israel -- 'God strives', another name of Jacob and his descJump to PreviousBuild Building Charged Chargeth Commanded House Israel Orders Solomon
