Melachim Alef 8:56 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 8:56

Blessed be the Lord, that hath given rest unto his people
Israel, according, to all that he promised
&c.] A land of rest, and rest in the land from all enemies; see ( Deuteronomy 12:9 Deuteronomy 12:10 ) ,

there hath not failed one word of all his good promises, which he
promised by the hand of Moses his servant:
so Joshua observed a little before his death, ( Joshua 23:14 ) to which Solomon seems to have respect; and who lived to see a greater accomplishment of the gracious promises of God, and his faithfulness therein, both in the times of his father David, and his own.
