1 Cronache 13:1 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 13:1

And David consulted with the captains of thousands,
and hundreds, and with every leader.
] With the chiliarchs and centurions, and every officer in that large body of armed men in every tribe, who met to make and crown him king: for at that time was this consultation had, and therefore is connected with it; though the affair advised about was not yet done, as Dr. Lightfoot ^F8 observes, and was not done until some considerable time afterwards. Advice being taken, the several officers went with their men to their respective countries, to meet again at a certain time and place to put the thing projected into execution; and between this and that time were Hiram's message to David on his accession to the throne, the taking of Jerusalem, and the two battles with the Philistines, as the same writer notes; most of which are recorded before this in the book of Samuel, and follow here.

1 Cronache 13:1 In-Context

1 POI Davide si consigliò con tutti i conduttori, capi delle migliaia, e delle centinaia.

2 E disse a tutta la raunanza d’Israele: Se vi par bene, e se ciò procede dal Signore Iddio nostro, mandiamo in qua ed in là agli altri nostri fratelli, che sono per tutte le contrade d’Israele, appo i quali sono i sacerdoti e i Leviti, nelle terre, i cui contadi sono loro assegnati, a dir loro che si raunino appresso a noi.

3 E riduciamo appresso di noi l’Arca dell’Iddio nostro; perciocchè noi non l’abbiamo ricercata al tempo di Saulle.

4 E tutta la raunanza disse che si facesse così; perciocchè la cosa piacque a tutto il popolo.

5 Davide adunque adunò tutto Israele, da Sihor di Egitto, fino all’entrata di Hamat, per condurre l’Arca di Dio da Chiriat-iearim.
