SEV Biblia, Chapter 28:1
¶ Y juntó David en Jerusalén a todos los principales de Israel, los príncipes de las tribus, y los príncipes de las cuadrillas, que servían al rey; y los tribunos y centuriones, con los príncipes de toda la hacienda y posesión de David, y sus hijos, con los eunucos, los poderosos, y todos los hombres valientes.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 28:1
Verse 1. David assembled] This refers to the persons whose names and offices we have seen in the preceding chapter.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 1. And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes , etc.] Whose names are given in ( 1 Chronicles 27:16-22) and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course ; monthly, each having 24,000 men under him, whose names are expressed, ( 1 Chronicles 27:2-15) and the captains over the thousands ; of which there were twenty four in a course, at the head of each 1000, under the chief captain: and captains over the hundreds : centurions under the second captains: and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons ; whose names may be read in ( 1 Chronicles 27:25-31) with the officers : the courtiers: and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men ; both men of valour, and of wealth and riches: these David assembled unto Jerusalem ; the metropolis of the kingdoms and where his court and palace were.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-10 - During David's last sickness, many chief priests and Levites were a Jerusalem. Finding himself able, David spoke of his purpose to build temple for God, and of God's disallowing that purpose. He opened to them God's gracious purposes concerning Solomon. David charged them to cleave stedfastly to God and their duty. We cannot do our work as we should, unless we put on resolution, and fetch in strength from Divin grace. Religion or piety has two distinct parts. The first is knowledg of God, the second is worship of God. David says, Know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and a willing mind. God is made known by his works and word. Revelation alone shows the whol character of God, in his providence, his holy law, his condemnation of sinners, his blessed gospel, and the ministration of the Spirit to all true believers. The natural man cannot receive this knowledge of God But thus we learn the value of the Saviour's atonement, and of the sanctification of the Holy Spirit, and are influenced to walk in all his commandments. It brings a sinner to his proper place at the foot of the cross, as a poor, guilty, helpless worm, deserving wrath, ye expecting every thing needful from the free mercy and grace of God ou Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. Having been forgiven much, the pardoned sinner learns to love much.
