1 Reyes 6:12 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 6:12

[Concerning] this house which thou art in building
Or with respect to that, these things are to be said as from the Lord:

if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep
all my commandments to walk in them;
even all the laws of God, moral, ceremonial, and judicial; and this respects not only Solomon personally, but his successors, and even all the people of Israel:

then will I perform my covenant with thee, which I spake unto David thy
father;
by Nathan the prophet; not only that he should build an house for God, which should be a settled dwelling place, but that his own house and kingdom should be established for a long time to come, and his posterity should enjoy the presence of God in this house, provided regard was had to the precepts and ordinances of the Lord, ( 2 Samuel 7:12-16 ) .

1 Reyes 6:12 In-Context

10 Y edificó asimismo el aposento en derredor de toda la casa, de altura de cinco codos, el cual se apoyaba en la casa con maderas de cedro.

11 Y fué palabra de Jehová á Salomón, diciendo:

12 Esta casa que tú edificas, si anduvieres en mis estatutos, é hicieres mis derechos, y guardares todos mis mandamientos andando en ellos, yo tendré firme contigo mi palabra que hablé á David tu padre;

13 Y habitaré en medio de los hijos de Israel, y no dejaré á mi pueblo Israel.

14 Así que, Salomón labró la casa, y acabóla.
