Contextual Overview

54 Solomon prayed this prayer to the Lord , kneeling in front of the altar with his arms raised toward heaven. When he finished praying, he got up. 55 Then, in a loud voice, he stood and blessed all the people of Israel, saying: 56 "Praise the Lord ! He promised he would give rest to his people Israel, and he has given us rest. The Lord has kept all the good promises he gave through his servant Moses. 57 May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors. May he never leave us, 58 and may he turn us to himself so we will follow him. Let us obey all the laws and commands he gave our ancestors. 59 May the Lord our God remember this prayer day and night and do what is right for his servant and his people Israel day by day. 60 Then all the people of the world will know the Lord is the only true God. 61 You must fully obey the Lord our God and follow all his laws and commands. Continue to obey in the future as you do now."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That he may incline our hearts unto him,.... By his Spirit, to love, fear, and serve him; to attend to his worship, word, and ordinances:

to walk in all his ways; he has prescribed and directed to:

and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers; all his laws, moral, ceremonial, and judicial.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Incline our hearts - This is a doctrine which first appears in Scripture in the Davidical Psalms (see the margin reference and Psalms 141:4). Solomon in this prayer seems to be thoroughly penetrated with his father’s spirit.
