SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:25
que envió por mano de Natán profeta, y llamó su nombre Jedidías (amable al SEÑOR ), por el SEÑOR.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 12:25
Verse 25. Called-Jedidiah] hydydy , literally, the beloved of the Lord. This is the first instance I remember of a minister of God being employed to give a name to the child of one of his servants. But it is strange that the name given by the father was that alone which prevailed.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet , etc.] Either David did; he sent by him to Bathsheba, to acquaint her with the name of the child, that it was to be Solomon; which is not so likely: or “he, David, delivered it into the hand of Nathan the prophet”; to educate it, instruct it, and bring it up in the nurture of the Lord; or rather the Lord sent a message by Nathan the prophet to David, that he loved Solomon: and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the Lord : that is, David also called him by this name, because of the love of the Lord unto him; for Jedidiah signifies “the beloved of the Lord”; a name and character which well agrees with the Messiah, Solomon’s antitype, ( Matthew 3:17 17:5).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-25 - David now penned the 51st Psalm, in which, though he had been assure that his sin was pardoned, he prays earnestly for pardon, and greatl laments his sin. He was willing to bear the shame of it, to have it ever before him, to be continually upbraided with it. God gives u leave to be earnest with him in prayer for particular blessings, from trust in his power and general mercy, though we have no particula promise to build upon. David patiently submitted to the will of God in the death of one child, and God made up the loss to his advantage, in the birth of another. The way to have creature comforts continued of restored, or the loss made up some other way, is cheerfully to resig them to God. God, by his grace, particularly owned and favoured tha son, and ordered him to be called Jedidiah, Beloved of the Lord. Ou prayers for our children are graciously and as fully answered when some of them die in their infancy, for they are well taken care of, and when others live, "beloved of the Lord."
