1 Re 8:33 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 8:33

When thy people Israel shall be smitten down before the enemy,
&c.] Beaten and routed, many slain, and others carried captive; which had been their case, and might be again, and was, though now a time of peace:

because they have sinned against thee;
which always was the reason of their being given up into the hands of their enemies:

and shall turn again to thee;
to thy worship, as the Targum, having fallen into idolatry, which was generally the case when they fell before their enemies:

and confess thy name;
own him to be the true God, acknowledge his justice in their punishment, confess their sin, repent of it, and give him glory:

and pray and make supplication unto thee in this house;
not the captives, unless it should be rendered, as it may, "toward this house" {f}; but those that escaped, or their brethren that went not out to battle, who should pray for them here.

1 Re 8:33 In-Context

31 Quando alcuno avrĂ  peccato contro al suo prossimo, ed esso avrĂ  da lui richiesto il giuramento, per farlo giurare; ed il giuramento sarĂ  venuto davanti al tuo Altare, in questa Casa, porgi le orecchie dal cielo,
32 ed opera, e giudica i tuoi servitori, condannando il colpevole, per fargli ritornare in su la testa ciò che egli avrà fatto; ed assolvendo il giusto, per rendergli secondo la sua giustizia.
33 Quando il tuo popolo Israele sarà stato sconfitto dal nemico, perchè avrà peccato contro a te; se poi si converte a te, e dà gloria al tuo Nome, e ti fa orazione e supplicazione, in questa Casa,
34 esaudiscilo dal cielo, e perdona al tuo popolo Israele il suo peccato, e riconducilo al paese che tu desti a’ suoi padri.
35 Quando il cielo sarà serrato, e non pioverà, perchè i figliuoli d’Israele avranno peccato contro a te; se essi fanno orazione, volgendosi verso questo luogo, e dànno gloria al tuo Nome, e si convertono da’ lor peccati, perciocchè tu li avrai afflitti,
