Psalms 132:4 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

(3-5) It is vain to search the historical accounts for this vow. It may be implied from 2 Samuel 7:2, and from the persistent purpose which David certainly nourished. The LXX. and Vulg. give the vow in even greater detail, adding, “and rest to my temples.”

Psalms 132:3-5

3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitationa for the mighty God of Jacob.
