Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible
back to:
2 Chronicles
Book: 2 Chronicles
Chapter: 3
Overview:
The
Building of the
Temple.
- There is a more particular account of the
Building of the
Temple in 1Ki 6. It must be in the place
David had prepared,
not only which he had purchased, but which he had fixed
On By
Divine direction. Full instructions enable us to go about our
work with certainty and to proceed therein with comfort. Blessed
be
God, the Scriptures are enough to render the
Man of
God
thoroughly furnished for every good work. Let us search the
Scriptures daily, beseeching the
Lord to enable us to
understand, believe, and obey his
Word, that our work and our
way may be made
Plain, and that all may be begun, continued, and
ended in him. Beholding
God, in
Christ, his true
Temple, more
glorious than that of
Solomon's, may we become a spiritual
House, a
Habitation of
God through the
Spirit.
