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 Dopo che Salomone ebbe finito di costruire la casa dell’Eterno, la casa del re e tutto quello ch’ebbe gusto e volontà di fare,
2 l’Eterno gli apparve per la seconda volta, come gli era apparito a Gabaon,
3 e gli disse: "Io ho esaudita la tua preghiera e la supplicazione che hai fatta dinanzi a me; ho santificata questa casa che tu hai edificata per mettervi il mio nome in perpetuo; e gli occhi miei ed il mio cuore saran quivi sempre.
4 E quanto a te, se tu cammini dinanzi a me come camminò Davide, tuo padre, con integrità di cuore e con rettitudine, facendo tutto quello che t’ho comandato, e se osservi le mie leggi e i miei precetti,
5 io stabilirò il trono del tuo regno in Israele in perpetuo, come promisi a Davide tuo padre, dicendo: Non ti mancherà mai qualcuno che segga sul trono d’Israele.
