1 Kings 8:25 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Solomon’s prayer is, perhaps, generally for the fulfillment of all the promises made to David in connection with the building of the temple. But there seems to be special allusion in this verse to the promise recorded in Psalms 132:14.

1 Kings 8:25

25 Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him, saying, There shall not faild thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of Israel; so that thy children take heed to their way, that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me.
