1 Chronicles 28:10 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 28:10

Take heed now
Of offending God by forsaking him; or see, consider, and observe now what he was further about to say to him, concerning the building of the temple, as follows:

for the Lord hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary;
a temple for the ark, called the sanctuary, ( Numbers 7:9 ) ( 10:21 ) the Targum is, the Word of the Lord hath chosen thee

be strong, and do it,
be of a good heart and courage, and set about it with vigour and resolution.

1 Chronicles 28:10 In-Context

8 nunc igitur coram universo coetu Israhel audiente Deo nostro custodite et perquirite cuncta mandata Domini Dei nostri ut possideatis terram bonam et relinquatis eam filiis vestris post vos usque in sempiternum
9 tu autem Salomon fili mi scito Deum patris tui et servi ei corde perfecto et animo voluntario omnia enim corda scrutatur Dominus et universas mentium cogitationes intellegit si quaesieris eum invenies si autem dereliqueris illum proiciet te in aeternum
10 nunc ergo quia elegit te Dominus ut aedificares domum sanctuarii confortare et perfice
11 dedit autem David Salomoni filio suo descriptionem porticus et templi et cellariorum et cenaculi et cubiculorum in adytis et domus propitiationis
12 necnon et omnium quae cogitaverat atriorum et exedrarum per circuitum in thesauros domus Domini et in thesauros sanctorum
