2 Samuel 7:16 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 7:16

And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever
before thee
That is, both his family and his government should be perpetuated, or he should always have one of his family to sit upon his throne; the accomplishment of which, in the beginning of it, he saw with his eyes in his son Solomon, and with an eye of faith in his greater Son the Messiah, in whom only these words will have their complete fulfilment; and so Abarbinel says this vision or prophecy is explained by some of the days of the Messiah; and this house and kingdom, in ( 1 Chronicles 17:14 ) ; are called by the Lord "my" house, and "my" kingdom:

thy throne shall be established for ever;
which is a repetition of the same in other words for the confirmation of it.

15 Sin embargo, no le negaré mi amor, como se lo negué a Saúl, a quien abandoné para abrirte paso.

16 Tu casa y tu reino durarán para siempre delante de mí; tu trono quedará establecido para siempre”».

17 Natán le comunicó todo esto a David, tal como lo había recibido por revelación.

18 Luego el rey David se presentó ante el SEÑOR y le dijo:«SEÑOR y Dios, ¿quién soy yo, y qué es mi familia, para que me hayas hecho llegar tan lejos?
