Gill's Notes on the Bible
O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, c:] The ancestors of the Jewish nation, whose covenant God the Lord was, and who had ever been mindful of his promise to them, with respect to them their seed:
keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people let the same disposition of mind always continue in them to serve the Lord their God:
and prepare their heart unto thee; incline and dispose their minds always to fear the Lord, and obey his will.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Keep this forever ... - i. e., “Preserve forever this spirit of liberal and spontaneous giving in the hearts of Thy people, and establish their hearts toward Thee.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 29:18. Keep this for ever — All the good dispositions which myself and my people have, came from thee; continue to support and strengthen them by the same grace by which they have been inspired!
