2 Samuel 7:21 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 7:21

For thy word's sake
For the sake of the promise he had made to him by Samuel, that he should be king, and his kingdom should be established; or for the sake of the Messiah, that should spring from him; the Memra, as the Targum, the essential Word of God; and so the Septuagint version, "because of thy servant", with which agrees the parallel text in ( 1 Chronicles 17:19 ) ;

and according to thine own heart;
of his own sovereign good will and pleasure, of his own grace, as the Arabic version, and not according to the merits and deserts of David:

hast thou done all these great things;
in making him king of Israel, and settling the kingdom in his posterity to the times of the Messiah, who should spring from him:

to make thy servant know [them];
as he now did by Nathan the prophet, what he and his should enjoy for time to come; so that it is not only a blessing to have favours designed, purposed, and promised, but to have the knowledge of them, to know the things that are freely given of God.

2 Samuel 7:21 In-Context

19 E isso ainda foi pouco aos teus olhos, Senhor Jeová, senão que também falaste da casa do teu servo para tempos distantes; e me tens mostrado gerações futuras, ó Senhor Jeová?
20 Que mais te poderá dizer Davi. pois tu conheces bem o teu servo, ó Senhor Jeová.
21 Por causa da tua palavra, e segundo o teu coração, fizeste toda esta grandeza, revelando-a ao teu servo.
22 Portanto és grandioso, ó Senhor Jeová, porque ninguém há semelhante a ti, e não há Deus senão tu só, segundo tudo o que temos ouvido com os nossos ouvidos.
23 Que outra nação na terra é semelhante a teu povo Israel, a quem tu, ó Deus, foste resgatar para te ser povo, para te fazeres um nome, e para fazeres a seu favor estas grandes e terríveis coisas para a tua terra, diante do teu povo, que tu resgataste para ti do Egito, desterrando nações e seus deuses?
