1 Chronicles 29:14 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

That we should be able to offer so willingly, i.e. that thou shouldst give us both such riches out of which we should be able to make such an offering, and such a willing and free heart to offer them; both which are thy gifts, and the fruits of thy good grace and mercy to us. Of thine own have we given thee; we return only what we have received, and therefore we do only pay a debt to thee, and do not hereby oblige thee, or deserve any thing from thee.

1 Chronicles 29:14

14 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be ableb to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.
