The events of this chapter explain why Solomon&#8217;s temple was placed at that very location where God had answered David with fire from heaven. A few other variations in the parallels are of no importance.<\/p>\n<p>E.M. Zerr:<\/p>\n<p>1Ch 21:28. David made some sacrifices with his plea to God for mercy. The plea was granted, and he then made additional offerings in gratitude for the divine favor. That was another fine example and one that is worthy of following today. Many people will pray or do other religious services when they are in trouble. When the trouble is removed they will forget God and give themselves over to their own personal interests. <\/p>\n<p>1Ch 21:29-30. In spite of the fact that God caused the angel to withdraw the sword from the slaughtering, David was so overawed by the whole procedure that he hesitated about going to the institution that was at Gibeon. He therefore was content to perform the service on the altar he built on the ground purchased from Ornan.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Old and New Testaments Restoration Commentary<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>1Ch 21:28.
