Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

let these my words: This and the following verse are a sort of supplement to the prayer; and there is an important addition to this prayer in 2 Chronicles 6:41, 2 Chronicles 6:42, apparently taken from one of the Psalms.

nigh: Psalms 102:1, Psalms 102:2, Psalms 141:2, John 17:9, John 17:20-24, 1 John 2:2

at all times: Heb. the thing of a day in his day, Luke 11:3

as the matter: Deuteronomy 33:25

Reciprocal: Ephesians 6:18 - supplication

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the Lord,.... At this time:

be nigh unto the Lord our God day and night; be continually remembered and regarded by him, that so gracious answers might always be returned to those who supplicated in this place:

that he maintain the cause of his servant; of himself and his successors in the throne, that they may continue to possess it in peace, to the glory of God, and the good of the people:

and the cause of his people Israel at all times: that their rights and privileges might be continued, and they supported in them; and both his cause and theirs be regarded:

as the matter shall require; as they should stand in need of assistance, direction, and protection.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 59. And let these my words — This and the following verse is a sort of supplement to the prayer which ended 1 Kings 8:53; but there is an important addition to this prayer in the parallel place, 2 Chronicles 6:41-42: "Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place, thou and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness. O LORD God, turn not away the face of thine anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant."
