Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) He shall build.--Better, he it is that shall build. The pronoun is emphatic: he, and not thou.I have chosen him. . . . his father.--Literally, I have chosen him for myself as a son, and I--I will become to him a father.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewAnd He saidוַיֹּ֣אמֶר (way·yō·mer)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 559: To utter, sayto me,לִ֔י (lî)Preposition | first person common singularStrong's Hebrew ‘Solomonשְׁלֹמֹ֣ה (šə·lō·mōh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 8010: Solomon -- David's son and successor to his throneyour sonבִנְךָ֔ (ḇin·ḵā)Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine singularStrong's 1121: A sonis the oneהֽוּא־ (hū-)Pronoun - third person masculine singularStrong's 1931: He, self, the same, this, that, as, arewho will buildיִבְנֶ֥ה (yiḇ·neh)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 1129: To buildMy houseבֵיתִ֖י (ḇê·ṯî)Noun - masculine singular construct | first person common singularStrong's 1004: A houseand My courts,וַחֲצֵרוֹתָ֑י (wa·ḥă·ṣê·rō·w·ṯāy)Conjunctive waw | Noun - common plural construct | first person common singularStrong's 2691: A yard, a hamletforכִּי־ (kî-)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctionI have chosenבָחַ֨רְתִּי (ḇā·ḥar·tî)Verb - Qal - Perfect - first person common singularStrong's 977: To try, selecthim [as]ב֥וֹ (ḇōw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's Hebrew Myלִי֙ (lî)Preposition | first person common singularStrong's Hebrew son,לְבֵ֔ן (lə·ḇên)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1121: A sonand Iוַאֲנִ֖י (wa·’ă·nî)Conjunctive waw | Pronoun - first person common singularStrong's 589: Iwill beאֶֽהְיֶה־ (’eh·yeh-)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - first person common singularStrong's 1961: To fall out, come to pass, become, behisלּ֥וֹ (lōw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's Hebrew Father.לְאָֽב׃ (lə·’āḇ)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1: FatherJump to PreviousBuild Builder Chosen Courts Fixed House Open Round Solomon Spaces
