Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 9. Neither shall the children of wickedness] They shall no more be brought into servitude as they were in the time they sojourned in Egypt.
This is what is here referred to.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- David's purposes; God's gracious promises.
--This chapter is the same as 2Sa 7. See what is there said upon it. It is very observable that what in Samuel is said to be, "for thy word' sake," is here said to be, "for thy servant's sake," ver. #(19). Jesu Christ is both the Word of God, Re 19:13, and the Servant of God, Is 42:1; and it is for his sake, upon account of his mediation, that the promises are made good to all believers; it is in him, that they ar yea and amen. For His sake it is done, for his sake it is made known to him we owe all this greatness, from him we are to expect all thes great things. They are the unsearchable riches of Christ, which, if by faith we see in themselves, and see in the Lord Jesus, we cannot but magnify as the only true greatness, and speak honourably of them. For this blessedness may we look amidst the trials of life, and when we feel the hand of death upon us; and seek it for our children after us _________________________________________________
