pero tú no edificarás la Casa, sino tu hijo que saldrá de tus lomos, él edificará Casa a mi nombre.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- Solomon's prayer at the dedication of the temple.
--The order of Solomon's prayer is to be observed. First and chiefly he prays for repentance and forgiveness, which is the chief blessing and the only solid foundation of other mercies: he then prays for temporal mercies; thereby teaching us what things to mind and desir most in our prayers. This also Christ hath taught us in his perfec pattern and form of prayer, where there is but one prayer for outward and all the rest are for spiritual blessings. The temple typified the human nature of Christ, in whom dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhea bodily. The ark typified his obedience and sufferings, by whic repenting sinners have access to a reconciled God, and communion with him. Jehovah has made our nature his resting-place for ever, in the person of Emmanuel, and through him he dwells with, and delights in his church of redeemed sinners. May our hearts become his resting-place may Christ dwell therein by faith, consecrating them as his temples and shedding abroad his love therein. May the Father look upon us in and through his Anointed; and may he remember and bless us in all things, according to his mercy to sinners, in and through Christ _________________________________________________
