Contextual Overview

1 When Solomon finished building the temple of the Lord , the royal palace, and all that Solomon desired to do, 2 the Lord appeared to Solomon a second time just as He had appeared to him at Gibeon. 3 The Lord said to him: I have heard your prayer and petition you have made before Me. I have consecrated this temple you have built, to put My name there forever; My eyes and My heart will be there at all times. 4 As for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, with a heart of integrity and in what is right, doing everything I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances, 5 I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised your father David: You will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel. 6 If you or your sons turn away from following Me and do not keep My commands—My statutes that I have set before you—and if you go and serve other gods and worship them, 7 I will cut off Israel from the land I gave them, and I will reject the temple I have sanctified for My name. Israel will become an object of scorn and ridicule among all the peoples. 8 Though this temple is now exalted, everyone who passes by will be appalled and will mock. They will say: Why did the Lord do this to this land and this temple? 9 Then they will say: Because they abandoned the Lord their God who brought their ancestors out of the land of Egypt. They clung to other gods and worshiped and served them. Because of this, the Lord brought all this ruin on them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the Lord,.... Which was done in seven years, 1 Kings 6:38.

and the king's house; his own palace, which was finished in thirteen years, 1 Kings 7:1,

and all Solomon's desire which he was pleased to do; all his other buildings, the house for Pharaoh's daughter, the house of the forest of Lebanon, and may include his vineyards, gardens, orchards, and pools of water, made for his pleasure, Ecclesiastes 2:4 in which he succeeded and prospered, 2 Chronicles 7:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER IX

The Lord appears a second time to Solomon, and assures him that

he had heard his prayer; and that he would establish his

worship for ever in that temple, and him and his successors on

the throne of Israel, provided he and they would keep his

statutes and judgments, 1-5;

but if they should transgress and forsake the Lord, then they

should be cast off, the temple itself abandoned, and their

enemies permitted to prevail over them, 6-9.

Solomon having finished the temple and the king's house, about

which he was employed twenty years, and having received

assistance from Hiram king of Tyre, he gave him in return

twenty cities in Galilee, with which he was not pleased, 10-14.

Solomon's levies, buildings, and the persons employed, 15-23.

Pharaoh's daughter comes to the city of David, 24.

He sacrifices thrice a year at the temple, 25.

Solomon's navy, and the gold they brought from Ophir, 26-28.
