Listen to 1 Re 9:3
3 e gli disse: Io ho esaudita la tua orazione e la tua supplicazione, che tu hai fatta davanti a me; io ho santificata questa Casa, la quale tu hai edificata per mettervi il mio Nome in perpetuo; e gli occhi miei, e il cuor mio saranno del continuo lĂ .

1 Re 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 Re 9:3 In-Context

1 ORA, dopo che Salomone ebbe finito di edificar la Casa del Signore, e la casa reale, e tutto ciò ch’egli ebbe desiderio e volontà di fare,
2 il Signore, gli apparve la seconda volta, come gli era apparito in Gabaon;
3 e gli disse: Io ho esaudita la tua orazione e la tua supplicazione, che tu hai fatta davanti a me; io ho santificata questa Casa, la quale tu hai edificata per mettervi il mio Nome in perpetuo; e gli occhi miei, e il cuor mio saranno del continuo lĂ .
4 E quant’è a te, se tu cammini nel mio cospetto, come è camminato Davide, tuo padre, in integrità di cuore, ed in dirittura, per far secondo tutto quello che io ti ho comandato; e se tu osservi i miei statuti e le mie leggi;
5 io altresì stabilirò il trono del tuo reame sopra Israele, in perpetuo, come io promisi a Davide, tuo padre, dicendo: Giammai non ti verrà meno uomo che segga in sul trono d’Israele.
