2 Samuel 7:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 7:17

According to all these words, and according to all this
vision
All the words of this prophecy, just as they were delivered to Nathan, were exactly expressed by him; he did not vary from them in the least, but with the greatest faithfulness related them:

so did Nathan speak unto David;
though in the part which related to the history of the house of God, it was contrary to the advice which he had given; but he was not ashamed to retract his sense, when he was made acquainted with the mind of God.

2 Samuel 7:17 In-Context

17 Nathan gave David a complete and accurate account of everything he heard and saw in the vision.

18 King David went in, took his place before God, and prayed: "Who am I, my Master God, and what is my family, that you have brought me to this place in life?
