Gill's Notes on the Bible
[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.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The meaning is, “So far as this house goes, thou art obedient (2 Samuel 7:13; 1 Chronicles 17:12, etc.); if thou wilt be obedient in other things also, then will I perform My word,” etc., God’s promises being always conditional. The promises made to David were:
(1) that he should be succeeded by one of his sons 2 Samuel 7:12; Psalms 132:11;
(2) that the kingdom should be established in the line of his descendants forever, if they were faithful Psalms 132:12; and
(3) that the Israelites should be no more afficted as beforetime 2 Samuel 7:10.
These promises are now confirmed to Solomon, but on the express condition of obedience, and two further promises are added.
