Divrey Hayamim Alef 29:23 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 29:23

Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord
Who had given it to him, and established him on it, and whose vicegerent he was, and over whose people he ruled:

as king instead of David;
he was viceroy to him in his life time, and succeeded him at his death, when he had the full power of government:

and prospered;
his reign was happy and peaceable:

and all Israel obeyed him;
at once; whereas it was some time, even years, before all Israel obeyed David.

22 And did eat and drink before Hashem on that day with simchah gedolah. And they crowned Sh’lomo Ben Dovid Melech the second time, and anointed him unto Hashem to be Nagid (ruler), and Tzadok to be Kohen.
23 Then Sh’lomo sat on the kisse Hashem as Melech instead of Dovid Aviv, and prospered, and kol Yisroel obeyed him.
24 And all the sarim, and the gibborim, and all the Bnei HaMelech Dovid submitted themselves unto Sh’lomo HaMelech.
25 And Hashem magnified Sh’lomo exceedingly in the eyes of all Yisroel, and bestowed upon him such hod malchut (royal majesty) as had not been on any melech before him in Yisroel.
