1 Chronicles 22
1 David, foreknowing the place of the temple, prepares abundance for the building of it.
6 He instructs Solomon in God's promises, and his duty in building the temple.
17 He charges the princes to assist his son.
temple <01004> [This is the house.]
David perhaps had some assurance that this was the place on which God designed that His house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a structure.
