1 Reis 9:3

Listen to 1 Reis 9:3
3 E o Senhor lhe disse: Ouvi a tua oração e a tua súplica, que fizeste perante mim; santifiquei esta casa que edificaste, a fim de pôr ali o meu nome para sempre; e os meus olhos e o meu coração estarão ali todos os dias.

1 Reis 9:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 9:3

And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy
supplication that thou hast made before me
With delight and pleasure, and had accepted it; meaning the prayer recorded in the preceding chapter:

I have hallowed this house which thou hast built;
by the cloud of glory filling it, and by fire descending from heaven, and consuming the sacrifices offered in it, ( 2 Chronicles 7:1 )

to put my name there for ever;
there to grant his presence, so long as his pure worship should be continued in it; so the Targum adds,

``and my Shechinah or divine Majesty shall abide in it, if my will is done there continually:''

and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually;
his eyes of Providence should be upon it, to watch over it, and protect it, and his worshippers in it; and he should have a cordial regard to the sacrifices there offered, and to the persons of the offerers, so long as they offered them in a right way, and to right ends and purposes.

1 Reis 9:3 In-Context

1 Sucedera pois que, tendo Salomão acabado de edificar a casa do Senhor, e a casa do rei, e tudo quanto lhe aprouve fazer,
2 apareceu-lhe o Senhor segunda vez, como lhe tinha aparecido em Gibeão.
3 E o Senhor lhe disse: Ouvi a tua oração e a tua súplica, que fizeste perante mim; santifiquei esta casa que edificaste, a fim de pôr ali o meu nome para sempre; e os meus olhos e o meu coração estarão ali todos os dias.
4 Ora, se tu andares perante mim como andou Davi, teu pai, com inteireza de coração e com eqüidade, fazendo conforme tudo o que te ordenei, e guardando os meus estatutos e as minhas ordenanças,
5 então confirmarei o trono de teu reino sobre Israel para sempre, como prometi a teu pai Davi, dizendo: Não te faltará varão sobre o trono de Israel.
