Contextual Overview

23Solomon sat on the Lord’s throne as king in place of his father David. He prospered, and all Israel obeyed him. 24All the leaders and the mighty men, and all of King David’s sons as well, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon. 25The Lord highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been bestowed on any king over Israel before him. 26David son of Jesse was king over all Israel. 27The length of his reign over Israel was forty years; he reigned in Hebron for seven years and in Jerusalem for thirty-three. 28He died at a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor, and his son Solomon became king in his place. 29As for the events of King David’s reign, from beginning to end, note that they are written in the Events of the Seer Samuel, the Events of the Prophet Nathan, and the Events of the Seer Gad, 30along with all his reign, his might, and the incidents that affected him and Israel and all the kingdoms of the surrounding lands.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

he died: David at his death had every thing that his heart could wish: "he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour;" having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did. "David," says Dr. Delaney, "was a true believer, a zealous adorer of God, teacher of His law and worship, and inspirer of His praise; a glorious example, a perpetual and inexhaustible fountain of true piety; a consummate and unrivalled hero; a skilful and successful captain; a steady patriot; a wise ruler; a faithful, generous, and magnanimous friend; and what is yet rarer, a no less generous and magnanimous enemy; a true penitent, a divine musician, a sublime poet, and an inspired prophet. By birth a peasant, by merit a prince! In youth a hero, in manhood a monarch, and in age a saint."

a good old age: Genesis 15:15, Genesis 25:8, Job 5:26, Proverbs 16:31, Acts 13:36

full of days: 1 Chronicles 23:1, Genesis 35:29, Job 5:26

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 1:1 - old 1 Kings 2:10 - So David 1 Chronicles 17:11 - when thy Proverbs 1:1 - Solomon Ecclesiastes 6:2 - a man

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he died in a good old age,.... Being seventy years of age:

full of days, riches, and honour; had as much of either of them as he could wish for; and having enough, he sought after, and was taken to the possession of, eternal life, durable riches, and honours, and glory, that fade not away:

and Solomon his son reigned in his stead; in full power and authority.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See 1 Kings 1:1 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 29:28. And he died — David, at his death, had every thing that his heart could wish.

1. A good old age, having lived as long as living could be desirable, and having in the main enjoyed good health.

2. Full of days; having lived till he saw every thing that he lived for either accomplished or in a state of forwardness.

3. Full of riches; witness the immense sums left for the temple.

4. Full of honorer; having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did, either before his time or since-laurels that are fresh to the present hour.
