Contextual Overview

1 David said, "The Temple of the Lord God and the altar for Israel's burnt offerings will be built here." 2 So David ordered all foreigners living in Israel to gather together. From that group David chose stonecutters to cut stones to be used in building the Temple of God. 3 David supplied a large amount of iron to be used for making nails and hinges for the gate doors. He also supplied more bronze than could be weighed, 4 and he supplied more cedar logs than could be counted. Much of the cedar had been brought to David by the people from Sidon and Tyre. 5 David said, "We should build a great Temple for the Lord , which will be famous everywhere for its greatness and beauty. But my son Solomon is young. He hasn't yet learned what he needs to know, so I will prepare for the building of it." So David got many of the materials ready before he died.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

This is the house: David perhaps had some assurance that this was the place on which God designed that His house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a structure. 1 Chronicles 21:18-28, Genesis 28:17, Deuteronomy 12:5-7, Deuteronomy 12:11, 2 Samuel 24:18, 2 Chronicles 3:1, 2 Chronicles 6:5, 2 Chronicles 6:6, Psalms 78:60, Psalms 78:67-69, Psalms 132:13, Psalms 132:14, John 4:20-22

and this is the altar: 2 Kings 18:22, 2 Chronicles 32:12

Reciprocal: Genesis 46:11 - Levi 2 Samuel 24:24 - So David 1 Chronicles 3:11 - Ahaziah 2 Chronicles 11:16 - to sacrifice Ezra 2:68 - in his place Zechariah 9:7 - a Jebusite Matthew 25:16 - went Acts 13:36 - served

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then David said,.... Within himself, or to some principal persons about him:

this is the house of the Lord God; the place where the temple was to be built, hinted at in Deuteronomy 12:5 and elsewhere; the meaning is, here, or in "this" place, shall be the house of God, so Noldius o, for as yet there were none; but it was now made known to David that here it should be built, and so the words in 2 Chronicles 3:1 should be rendered,

then Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, which was shown to David his father, which he prepared in the place of David, that which he bought in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite: and this is the altar for the burnt offering for Israel; not which he had built here; but this is the place where one should be built for the people of Israel to bring their offerings to, and to be here offered for them by the priests: this he said by a divine impulse upon his mind, or which he concluded from the acceptance of his sacrifice here, signified by fire that came down from heaven and consumed it; and this being in the threshingfloor of the Jebusites, might prefigure the church of God to be built up among the Gentiles.

o Ebr. Concord. Part. p. 352. No. 1257.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This is the house of the Lord God - The double miracle - that of the angelic appearance and that of the fire from heaven - had convinced David that here he had found the destined site of that “house” which it had been told him that his son should build 1 Chronicles 22:10. Hence, this public announcement.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXII

David makes great preparations for building a temple to the

Lord, 1-5;

gives the necessary directions to Solomon concerning it, 6-16;

and exhorts the princes of Israel to assist in the undertaking,

17-19.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXII

Verse 1 Chronicles 22:1. David said, This is the house of the Lord — Till a temple is built for his name, this place shall be considered the temple of God; and on this altar, and not on that at Gibeon, shall the burnt-offerings of Israel be made. David probably thought that this was the place on which God designed that his house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy, not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a building.
