Contextual Overview

1 And Dauid the king saide vnto all the congregation: God hath specially chosen Solomon my sonne which is yet young & tender, & the worke is great: for the house shall not be for man, but for the Lorde God. 2 Moreouer, I haue prepared with all my might for the house of my God, golde for vessels of golde, siluer for them of siluer, brasse for thinges of brasse, iron for thinges of iron, & wood for thynges of wood, and onix stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of diuers colours, & al maner of precious stones, & marble stones in great aboundaunce. 3 And because I haue lust to the house of my God, I haue of myne owne proper good of golde and siluer which I haue geuen to the house of my God, beside all that I haue prepared for the holy house, 4 Euen three thousand talentes of golde of Ophir, and seuen thousand talentes of tried siluer, to ouer laye the walles of the house withall. 5 The golde for thinges of golde, siluer for them of siluer, and for all maner of worke by the handes of artificers: And whosoeuer is wylling, may this day consecrate his hande vnto the Lorde. 6 And so the auncient fathers and the lordes of the tribes of Israel, the captaynes of thousandes and hundredes, with the lordes that were rulers ouer the kinges worke, were willing, 7 And gaue for the seruice of the house of God, fiue thousand talentes of golde, and ten thousand peeces [of golde,] and ten thousand talentes of siluer, & eyghtteene thousand talentes of brasse, and one hundred thousand talentes of iron. 8 And they with whom precious stones were founde, gaue them to the treasure of the house of the Lord by the hand of Iehiel the Gersonite. 9 And the people reioyced when they were so wylling to geue their goodes, and with a perfect heart they offered wyllingly to the Lord: And Dauid the king reioyced with great gladnesse.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

I have prepared: 1 Chronicles 22:3-5, 1 Chronicles 22:14-16

with all: 2 Chronicles 31:20-21, Ecclesiastes 9:10, 2 Corinthians 8:3, Colossians 3:23, 1 Peter 4:10-11,

the gold: 1 Chronicles 28:14-18

onyx stones: Avney shoham, which was, probably, not the precious stone or gem called onyx, but a marble called in Greek onychites, which Pliny mentions as a stone Caramania; for one would hardly think that gems of any kind were used externally in such a building as the temple. Antiquity gave both stones this name, because of their resemblance to the nail of the finger. Genesis 2:12, Exodus 28:17, Exodus 28:20, Exodus 39:6, Exodus 39:13, Job 28:16, Isaiah 54:11-12, Revelation 21:18-21

glistering stones: Avney phuch seems to denote a kind of black marble, so called from its colour resembling stibium. So Vulgate quasi stibinos.

marble stones: Avney shayish is rendered in the Targum avney marmoraiyah, "stones of marble," and by the LXX, and Vulgate בסיןם or בסיםןם, or marmor Parium, "Parium marble," which was remarkable for its bright white colour. Josephus says that the temple was built of large blocks of white marble, beautifully polished, so as to produce a most splendid appearance.

Reciprocal: Exodus 38:24 - All the gold 2 Samuel 8:11 - Which 1 Kings 7:51 - things which David his father had dedicated 1 Chronicles 26:20 - treasures 1 Chronicles 26:26 - over all the treasures 1 Chronicles 29:19 - the which 2 Chronicles 3:6 - precious 2 Chronicles 34:29 - the king Ezra 8:30 - the house of our God Proverbs 19:22 - desire Proverbs 24:4 - General Ecclesiastes 10:19 - but Ezekiel 7:20 - the beauty Mark 12:44 - cast in of Acts 7:46 - and desired

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God,.... According to the utmost of his ability for the building and decorating of it:

the gold for the things to be made of gold; as the candlesticks, shewbread tables, c.

and the silver for [things] of silver as for basins, c.

and the brass for [things] of brass as the brasen altar, brasen laver,

and iron for [things] of iron; for nails, hinges, c.

and wood for [things] of wood for rafters, ceilings, floors, c.

onyx stones the Targum, stones of beryl: and stones to be set; other precious stones to be set in gold and silver:

glistering stones; the Targum, emeralds; the word is used for stibium, or black lead, with which women painted their eyes; and so may signify black stones, like black lead; as white marble is after mentioned, perhaps black is here meant, or such stones Solomon paved the ways with leading to Jerusalem y: but as such stones are not very glistering, there seems to be no reason for such an epithet; unless the stone "phengites" should be meant, which was a clear bright stone, and served for looking glasses. Domitian the Roman emperor, when under suspicion of being murdered by persons he had offended, garnished the porticos of his palace with this stone, which was of such brightness, that by the images formed in it he could see what was behind him z; and so Lucian speaks a of Astarte having a splendid stone about her, called λυχνις, which in the night gave much light to the temple, but shone weakly in the day time, and looked like fire:

and of divers colours; that is, stones of various colours, as jaspers, amethysts, c. Kimchi interprets it of embroidered clothes, and garments of needlework, and in these precious stones were sometimes inserted:

and all manner of precious stones as pearls, diamonds, c. it is hard to say what all these precious stones were for Jarchi and Kimchi think they were to decorate the walls overlaid with gold, in which they were set; it is certain they were for garnishing and beautifying the house, see 2 Chronicles 3:6

and marble stones in abundance; for pillars, tables, and pavement, as Jarchi; this was Parian marble, according to the Septuagint and Vulgate Latin versions; the whitest of marble b, found the island of Paros, and which agrees with the word here used.

y Joseph. Antiqu. l. 8. c. 7. sect. 4. z Sueton. Vit. Domitian. c. 14. Vid. Plin. Nat. Hist. l. 36. c. 22. Isidor. Origin. l. 16. c. 4. a De Dea Syria. b "----Pario marmore purius." Horat. Carmin. l. 1. ode 19.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Glistering stones - Rather, “colored stones;” or, “dark stones” - stones of a hue like that of the antimony wherewith women painted their eyes.

Marble stones - or, “white stones” - perhaps “alabaster,” which is found near Damascus. On the use made of the “stones” in building the temple, see 2 Chronicles 3:6 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 29:2. And marble stones — אבני שיש abney shayish, which the Vulgate translates marmor Parium, Parian marble. Paros was one of the Cyclade islands, and produced the whitest and finest marble, that of which most of the finest works of antiquity have been made. That the word shaish means marble is probable from the Chaldee, which has אבני מרמורייה abney marmoraiyah, marble stones. Josephus says that the temple was built of large blocks of white marble, beautifully polished, so as to produce a most splendid appearance. - Jos., De Bell. Jud., lib. v., c. 5, s. 2.
