1 Chronicles 28:7

7 I will establish his kingdom forever if he continues resolute in keeping my commandments and my ordinances, as he is today.'

1 Chronicles 28:7 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 28:7

Moreover, I will establish his kingdom for ever
The same is said in ( 2 Samuel 7:13 )

if he be constant to do my commandments, and my judgments, as at this
day;
if he continued in the observance of them, as he had begun, and went on in until that day; this is added here, and was not spoken by Nathan, when what goes before was; for Solomon was not then born, but must be suggested to David since, and as it should seem at this time.

1 Chronicles 28:7 In-Context

5 And of all my sons, for the Lord has given me many, he has chosen my son Solomon to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel.
6 He said to me, "It is your son Solomon who shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be a son to me, and I will be a father to him.
7 I will establish his kingdom forever if he continues resolute in keeping my commandments and my ordinances, as he is today.'
8 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel, the assembly of the Lord, and in the hearing of our God, observe and search out all the commandments of the Lord your God; that you may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children after you forever.
9 "And you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve him with single mind and willing heart; for the Lord searches every mind, and understands every plan and thought. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will abandon you forever.
