Melachim Alef 15:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:4

Nevertheless, for David's sake did the Lord his God give him a
lamp in Jerusalem
A kingdom there, as the Targum, splendid and glorious, to be continued in his posterity: to set up his son after him; in it:

and to establish Jerusalem:
to continue that in which the temple was, for the sake of which, and the worship of God in it, there was a succession of David's posterity on the throne of Judah.

Melachim Alef 15:4 In-Context

2 Shalosh shanim reigned he in Yerushalayim. And shem immo was Ma’achah Bat Avishalom.

3 And he walked in all the chattot Aviv, which he had done before him; and his lev was not shalem (fully devoted) to Hashem Elohav, as the levav Dovid Aviv.

4 Nevertheless l’ma’an Dovid (for the sake of Dovid) did Hashem Elohav give him a ner (lamp) in Yerushalayim, to raise up Bno after him, and to establish Yerushalayim;

5 Because Dovid did that which was yashar in the eyes of Hashem, and turned not aside from any thing that He commanded him all the days of his life, except only in the matter of Uriyah HaChitti (the Hittite).

6 And there was milchamah between Rechav‘am and Yarov‘am all the days of his life.
