Gill's Notes on the Bible

Furthermore, David the king said unto all the congregation,.... Having finished what he had to say to Solomon, he addressed the congregation again:

Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen; both to be king, and to build the temple

is yet young and tender; see 1 Chronicles 22:5

and the work is great; both of governing so great a people, and of building so magnificent a temple, especially the latter is meant:

for the palace is not for man; for any mortal king, though ever so great:

but for the Lord God; the Targum is,

"but for the Word of the Lord God,''

who is the King of kings, and Lord of lords; and therefore is to be built as with the greatest exactness, according to the pattern he himself has given, so with the greatest splendour and magnificence.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The palace - The original word here used is the Hebrew form of a Persian word, and generally designates the residence of the Persian monarch Esther 1:2, Esther 1:5; Esther 2:3, Esther 2:8; Nehemiah 1:1; Daniel 8:2. It is only here and in 1 Chronicles 29:19 that it is applied to the temple.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXIX

David enumerates the gifts which he designed for the building

of the temple; and exhorts the princes and people to make

their offerings, 1-5.

They offer willingly, and to a great amount, 6-9.

David's thanksgiving and prayer to God on the occasion, 10-19.

The princes and people praise God, offer sacrifices and feasts

before him, make Solomon King, and do him homage, 20-24.

The Lord magnifies Solomon, 25.

Concluding account of David's reign, character, and death,

26-30.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXIX

Verse 1 Chronicles 29:1. The palace is not for man — "The palace is not prepared for the name of a son of man, but for the name of the Word of the Lord God." - T.
