13<\/strong>. for my name<\/em> ] The Name of God signifies God Himself so far as He has revealed and manifested Himself to men. His promise concerning the Temple was that He would “put His name there,” that is, that He would be present and reveal Himself there in an especial manner.

For its application to Christ, see Joh 1:12<\/span>; Eph 1:20-22<\/U><\/span>; 1Ti 3:15<\/span>; Heb 3:6<\/span>; etc.; and Zec 6:12-13<\/span>.<\/P> I will stablish the throne of his kingdom forever – <\/B>The words forever, emphatically twice repeated in 2Sa 7:16<\/span>, show very distinctly that this prophecy looks beyond the succession of the kings of Judah of the house of David, and embraces the throne of Christ according to the Angels interpretation given in Luk 1:31-33<\/span>, where the reference to this passage cannot be mistaken. This is also brought out fully in Psa 89:29<\/span>, Psa 89:36-37<\/span>. See also Dan 7:13-14<\/span>; Isa 9:6-7<\/span>; Jer 23:5-6<\/span>; Jer 33:14-21<\/span>; Eze 34:24<\/span>; Zec 12:7-8<\/span>; Hos 3:5<\/span>, etc.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 13<\/span>.

And though the phrase for ever<\/I> is sometimes used of the time of a mans life, yet it cannot be so understood here, because the mercy here promised to Davids son is of another nature, and of far longer continuance, than that which was given to Saul, 2Sa 7:15<\/span>, who yet enjoyed the kingdom as long as he lived. But it is to be understood of Davids posterity in general, but with special respect to Christ in whose person the kingdom was to be lodged for ever, Isa 9:7<\/span>; Dan 2:44<\/span>; Luk 1:32<\/span>,33<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n 13. He shall build an house for myname, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever<\/B>Thisdeclaration referred, in its primary application, to Solomon, and tothe temporal kingdom of David’s family. But in a larger and sublimersense, it was meant of David’s Son of another nature (Heb1:8<\/span>). [See on 1Ch 17:14<\/span>.] <\/P> 2Sa7:18-29<\/span>. DAVID’SPRAYER AND THANKSGIVING.<\/P><\/p>\n He shall build an house for my name<\/strong>,…. For the honour of it, for the worship and service of God, as it is well known Solomon did; and so his antitype the Messiah, Zec 6:12<\/span>;<\/p>\n and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever<\/strong>; that is, for a long time. Solomon’s reign was forty years, and the kingdom of Judah continued in his posterity until the Babylonish captivity, and a prince that descended from him was the ruler of the people when they returned: this has its fulfilment more eminently in Christ, who was of his seed, to whom God has given “the throne of his father David”, and who “shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever”, Lu 1:32<\/span>.<\/p>\n 13<\/strong>. <\/strong> He shall build a house <\/strong> Here, again, the subject is primarily Solomon, for so Solomon himself explained it. 1Ki 5:5<\/span>; but the for ever <\/strong> with which the verse ends points unmistakably to a greater than Solomon. The house which Solomon built continued till the time of the Babylonish exile, when it was burned by Nebuchadnezzar, (2Ki 25:8<\/span>\ud83d\ude09 but it was rebuilt at the close of the exile, (Ezr 6:15<\/span>,) and of it then the prophet Haggai said, (Hag 2:9<\/span>\ud83d\ude42 “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than that of the former;” for this second temple was the connecting link between the Jews of Haggai’s time and the Messiah, who said, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” He spake of the temple of his body, (Joh 2:19<\/span>,) and by the resurrection from the dead he became, in his own sacred person, the foundation of a far more glorious building a spiritual house, built up of living stones, for a habitation of God through the Spirit. Eph 2:22 ; 1Pe 2:5<\/span>.<\/p>\n 2Sa 7:13-16<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> We have often had occasion to remark, in the course of these notes, that the phrase for ever <\/em>and those similar to it, frequently signify in the Old Testament only a considerable length of time. There can be no doubt that these words, in their primary sense, refer to Solomon and his kingdom. But as David was heir of that two-fold government, concerning which we have spoken at large on the book of Genesis; (see particularly chap. 9 and ch. 12) there can be no doubt that, in their secondary and complete sense, they refer to that Son of David, of whom Solomon the Jedidiah, <\/em>or, beloved of the Lord, <\/em>was a type. See Joh 12:34<\/span> and Heb 1:5<\/span>. In these double prophesies, we are carefully to distinguish what concerns the type, and what the anti-type. <\/p>\n 2Sa 7:13 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.<\/p>\n Ver. 13. He shall build an house for my name.<\/strong> ] Solomon, a material temple; Christ, a mystical – that is, the Church, which is the house of God. 1Ti 3:15 The Jews say that the Messiah is to build a temple, but then it must be a material one: and therefore in their daily prayers they call hard for his coming, and they cry altogether to God, Templum tuum brevi, valde cito, valde cito in diebus nostris, citissime nunc aedefica templum tuum brevi,<\/em> a<\/em> &c. Build thy temple, Lord, quickly, quickly, quickly, even in our days, &c. Oh that we would be as earnest for the building up of the mystical temple, and the speedy doing of it, that the topstone were once laid! &c. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Buxtorf, De Synag., <\/em> cap. 13.<\/p>\n He shall: 1Ki 5:5, 1Ki 6:12, 1Ki 8:19, 1Ch 17:11, 1Ch 17:12, 1Ch 22:9, 1Ch 22:10, 1Ch 28:6, 1Ch 28:10, Zec 6:13, Mat 16:18, Luk 1:31-33, Heb 3:3, 1Pe 2:5 <\/p>\n I will stablish: 2Sa 7:16, 1Ch 28:7, Psa 89:4, Psa 89:21, Psa 89:29, Psa 89:36, Psa 89:37, Isa 9:7, Isa 49:8, Luk 1:32, Luk 1:33 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Sa 2:10 – he shall 2Sa 22:51 – seed 1Ki 2:4 – fail 1Ki 2:12 – his kingdom 1Ki 8:13 – surely built 2Ki 8:19 – for David 2Ki 21:4 – In Jerusalem 2Ki 21:7 – In this house 1Ch 18:12 – slew of the Edomites 2Ch 6:2 – I have built 2Ch 6:9 – thy son 2Ch 7:18 – stablish 2Ch 22:11 – she slew him not Job 36:7 – he doth Psa 18:50 – to his Psa 28:5 – not build Psa 89:33 – Nevertheless Jer 30:21 – governor Mat 1:1 – the son of David Joh 12:34 – Christ Act 7:47 – General Act 26:6 – the promise<\/p>\n 2Sa 7:13.
