Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Since the day: 2 Samuel 7:6, 2 Samuel 7:7, 1 Kings 8:16
my name: Exodus 20:24, Exodus 23:21, Deuteronomy 12:5, Deuteronomy 12:11, Daniel 9:19
neither chose: The judges and Saul were chosen by God, for a season, to be rulers of Israel; but not to establish a permanent and hereditary authority over that people, as was the case with David. This clause is wanting in the parallel passage of Kings; but it helps to clear the sense. 1 Samuel 10:24, 1 Samuel 13:13, 1 Samuel 13:14, 1 Samuel 15:23, 2 Samuel 7:15, 2 Samuel 7:16
Reciprocal: 1 Kings 8:29 - My name 1 Chronicles 22:1 - This is the house 2 Chronicles 7:16 - my name
