Old Testament- Keil & Delitzsch
Individual Books- Restoration Commentary
Verse 1
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:1. Now it came to pass — See every thing recorded in this chapter amply detailed in Clarke's notes on "2 Samuel 7:1", &c.
Verse 5
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:5. But have gone from tent to tent — "I have transferred my tabernacle from Gilgal to Nob, from Nob to Shiloh, and from Shiloh to Gibeon."-Targum and Jarchi.
Verse 9
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:9. Neither shall the children of wickedness — They shall no more be brought into servitude as they were in the time they sojourned in Egypt. This is what is here referred to.
Verse 12
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:12. I will establish his throne for ever. — David was a type of Christ; and concerning him the prophecy is literally true. See Isaiah 9:7, where there is evidently the same reference.
Verse 13
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:13. I will not take my mercy away from him — I will not cut off his family from the throne, as I did that of his predecessor Saul.
Verse 16
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:16. And what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto? — I am not of any regal family, and have no natural right to the throne.
Verse 25
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:25. Hath found in his heart to pray — The Targum expresses a full sense: "Therefore thy servant hath found an opening of mouth, that he might pray before Thee."
Verse 27
Verse 1 Chronicles 17:27. For thou blessest, O Lord — "Thou beginnest to bless the house of thy servant, therefore it shall be blessed for ever." - T.
THE reader is requested to refer to 2 Samuel 7:0, and the notes there for many particulars that belong to the parallel places here, and which it should answer no good purpose to repeat in this place.
