1 Reyes 9:3

Listen to 1 Reyes 9:3

1 Reyes 9:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 9:3

And the Lord said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy
supplication that thou hast made before me
With delight and pleasure, and had accepted it; meaning the prayer recorded in the preceding chapter:

I have hallowed this house which thou hast built;
by the cloud of glory filling it, and by fire descending from heaven, and consuming the sacrifices offered in it, ( 2 Chronicles 7:1 )

to put my name there for ever;
there to grant his presence, so long as his pure worship should be continued in it; so the Targum adds,

``and my Shechinah or divine Majesty shall abide in it, if my will is done there continually:''

and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually;
his eyes of Providence should be upon it, to watch over it, and protect it, and his worshippers in it; and he should have a cordial regard to the sacrifices there offered, and to the persons of the offerers, so long as they offered them in a right way, and to right ends and purposes.

1 Reyes 9:3 In-Context

1 Y sucedió que cuando Salomón había acabado de edificar la casa del SEÑOR, la casa del rey y todo lo que Salomón deseaba hacer,
2 el SEÑOR se apareció a Salomón por segunda vez, tal como se le había aparecido en Gabaón.
3 Y el SEÑOR le dijo: He oído tu oración y tu súplica que has hecho delante de mí; he consagrado esta casa que has edificado, poniendo allí mi nombre para siempre; en ella estarán mis ojos y mi corazón perpetuamente.
4 Y en cuanto a ti, si andas delante de mí como anduvo tu padre David, en integridad de corazón y en rectitud, haciendo conforme a todo lo que te he mandado, y guardas mis estatutos y mis ordenanzas,
5 yo afirmaré el trono de tu reino sobre Israel para siempre, tal como prometí a tu padre David, diciendo: "No te faltará hombre sobre el trono de Israel."
