And they did eat and drink before the Lord on that day with
great gladness
Before the ark of the Lord, which was in the tabernacle David had pitched for it:
and they made Solomon the son of David king the second time;
the first was upon Adonijah's rebellion, and was done in the presence only of the inhabitants of Jerusalem; but this was done by and in the presence of all the great personages in the land:
and anointed him unto the Lord to be the chief governor;
under his father during his lifetime, and then to reign in his own right:
and Zadok to be priest;
high priest; which office yet he did not exercise till after the death of David, when Abiathar was thrust out by Solomon.
