1 Chronicles 22:10 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 22:10

He shall build an house for my name
For the worship of God, and for his honour and glory:

and he shall be my son, and I will be his father;
see ( 2 Samuel 7:13 2 Samuel 7:14 ) and which is applied to Christ, ( Hebrews 1:5 )

and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever;
that is, for a long time in his posterity; and which will have its fulfilment in Christ, his antitype, in the utmost sense of the expression, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his throne for ever and ever, ( Luke 1:32 Luke 1:33 ) ( Hebrews 1:8 ) .

1 Chronicles 22:10 In-Context

8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Thou hast shed much blood, and fought many battles, so thou cannot not build house to my name, after shedding so much blood before me:

9 The son, that shall be born to thee, shall be a most quiet man: for I will make him rest from all his enemies round about: and therefore he shall be called Peaceable: and I will give peace and quietness to Israel all his days.

10 He shall build a house to my name, and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him: and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

11 Now then, my son, the Lord be with thee, and do thou prosper, and build the house to the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken of thee.

12 The Lord also give thee wisdom and understanding, that thou mayest be able to rule Israel, and to keep the law of the Lord thy God.
