1 Cronache 23:1 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 23:1

So when David was old and full of days
Perhaps was now in the last year of his age, about seventy years old, though before he was bedridden; see ( 1 Chronicles 28:2 ) ,

he made Solomon his son king over Israel;
declared him to be his successor; this was before the affair of Adonijah, for then he ordered him to be anointed king, and placed on the throne; and this aggravated the rebellion of Adonijah, that it was against the declared and known will of his father.

1 Cronache 23:1 In-Context

1 Davide vecchio e sazio di giorni, stabilì Salomone, suo figliuolo, re d’Israele.

2 E radunò tutti i capi d’Israele, i sacerdoti e i Leviti.

3 Fu fatto un censimento dei Leviti dall’età di trent’anni in su; e, contati testa per testa, uomo per uomo, il loro numero risultò di trentottomila.

4 E Davide disse: "Ventiquattromila di questi siano addetti a dirigere l’opera della casa dell’Eterno; seimila siano magistrati e giudici

5 quattromila siano portinai, e quattromila celebrino l’Eterno con gli strumenti che io ho fatti per celebrarlo".
