God Gives King Solomon Wisdom & Knowledge to Judge His People

2 Chronicles 1:1-17                       2 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

Solomon, [king David’s] son, was strengthened in his kingdom & the Lord, his God was with him & magnified him exceedingly. Then, Solomon [spoke] to all Israel, to the captains of 1,000’s & 100’s & the judges & to [all the leaders] in all Israel, the [leaders] of the [forefather’s families.]

So, Solomon & all the congregation with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon. For there was the tabernacle of the congregation of God, [that] Moses, the servant of the Lord, had made in the wilderness.

But the Ark of God, David had brought up from Kirjath Jearim, [a.k.a. Kiriath Jearim,] to the place [that] David had prepared for it; [since David] had pitched a tent for it [in] Jerusalem.

[Also,] he put before the tabernacle of the Lord, the [brass] altar that made [by] Bezaleel, [Uri’s] son, [who was Hur’s] son. And Solomon & the congregation [inquired of God there.]

And Solomon went up [there] to the brass altar before the Lord, at the tabernacle of the congregation & offered 1,000 burnt [sacrifices] on it. That night, God [appeared] to Solomon & said to him, Ask what I shall give you.

And Solomon said to God, You have [shown] great mercy to David, my father & have made me [rule] in his [place.] Now, O Lord God, let Your promise to David, my father, be established. For You have made me king over a multitude [of] people, like the dust of the earth [in number.]

Now, give me wisdom & knowledge, [so] that I may go out & come in before this people. For who can judge [Your] people, [who are so many?] And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart & you haven’t asked [for:] riches, wealth, honor, nor the life of your enemies, neither have You asked [for] long life.

But [you] have asked for wisdom & knowledge for yourself, [so] that you may judge My people, over whom I have made you king. Wisdom & knowledge [are] granted to you & I will give you riches, wealth & honor, such as none of the kings before you have had. Neither shall there [be] any after you, [who] have the [same.]

Then, Solomon [went] to Jerusalem, from the high place that was at Gibeon, from [being] before the tabernacle of the congregation. And [Solomon ruled] over Israel.

And Solomon gathered 1,400 chariots & 12,000 horsemen, which [Solomon] placed in the chariot cities & with the king [in] Jerusalem. And king [Solomon] made silver & gold as [plentiful] as [the] stones in Jerusalem.

And he made cedar trees as [abundant] in the [valley] as [the] sycamore trees. And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt & linen yarn: [so] the king’s merchants received the linen yarn [for] a price.

They [purchased] & brought [from] Egypt a chariot for 600 shekels of silver & a horse for 150 [shekels.] So, they brought out horses for all the kings of the Hittites & for the kings of Syria, [as they could afford.]

Israelites Donate Gold, Silver & Precious Stones to Build the Lord's House

1 Chronicles 29:1-30      1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

Furthermore, king David said to all the congregation [of Israelites,] Solomon, my son, whom God Alone has chosen is [still] young & [inexperienced] & the work is [large.]

For the [temple] isn't for [men,] but [it's] for the Lord God. Now, I have prepared for the house of my God with all my might: the gold for things to be made of gold; the silver, for things of silver;

the brass, for things of brass; the iron, for things of iron & wood, for things of wood. [Also,] onyx stones & stones to be [put in settings, glistening] stones, stones of [a variety of] colors, all [types] of precious stones & marble stones in abundance.

[But] because I have [focused my] affection [on] the house of my God, I have of my own [free will] given gold & silver [to be used for] the house of my God, [over] & above [what] I have prepared for the Holy House.

[I have even given] 3,000 talents of gold [from] Ophir & 7,000 talents of refined silver, to overlay all [its] walls of the houses. The gold for [the] things of gold & the silver for [the] things of silver, and for all [types] of work to be made by the hands of [the skillful artisans.]

Then, who is willing to consecrate his service to the Lord, this day? Then, the [leaders] of the [forefathers' families] of the tribes of Israel, the captains of 1,000's & 100's & the [officials supervising] the king's work, offered willingly.

[They] gave 5,000 talents of gold, 10,000 drams [of gold,] 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of brass & 100,000 talents of iron for the service of [God’s] house. And [those who had] precious stones gave them to the [treasury] of the [Lord's] house, [in the care] of Jehiel, the Gershonite.

Then, the people rejoiced, because they offered willingly to the Lord [God] with a perfect heart. And king David also rejoiced with great joy. [For this reason,] David blessed the Lord [in front of] all the congregation.

And David said, Blessed [are] You, Lord God of Israel, our Father forever & ever. O Lord, Yours is the greatness & the power & the glory, victory & majesty. For all that is in the heaven & the earth is Yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord & You are exalted as Head [over] all.

Both riches & honor come [from] You & You [rule] over all [things.] And in Your hand is power & [strength] to make great & to give strength to all. Therefore, we now thank You, our God & praise Your glorious Name.

But who am I & what [are] my people, that we should be able to [generously] offer so willingly [like this?] For all things come from You & we have given You what is Your Own.

For we are [just] strangers & [travelers like our forefathers,] before You. Our days on earth are [like] a shadow [that fades away] & there is [nothing left.] O Lord, our God, all this [abundance] that we have prepared [is for building] You a house for Your Holy Name & comes [from] Your hand & all [of it] is Your Own.

Also, I know, my God, that You [test] the heart & have pleasure in [righteousness.] As for me, in the [integrity] of my heart, I have willingly offered all these things.

And now, with joy, I have seen your people, [who] are present here, to offer willingly to You. O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac & Israel, [a.k.a. Jacob,] our [forefathers, kept] this forever in the hearts, thoughts & imaginations of Your people & prepare their hearts [for] You.

And give to my son, Solomon, a perfect heart, to keep Your commandments, Your testimonies & Your [mandates] & to do all these things & to build [Your temple,] for which I have made [provisions.]

And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their [forefathers] & bowed their heads down & worshiped the Lord & the king.

And they offered sacrifices to the Lord. And [made] burnt offerings to the Lord, on the [next] day, even [with] 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, 1,000 lambs, with their drink offerings & sacrifices in abundance for all Israel. And [they ate & drank] before the Lord on that day with great [joy.]

And they made Solomon, [David's] son, [the] king the 2nd time & anointed him to the Lord, to be the [ruler] & Zadok to be [the] priest. Then, Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king, instead of David, his father & prospered & all Israel obeyed him.

All the princes & mighty men & [also] all king [David's other] sons [yielded their authority] to king Solomon. And the Lord magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel & [gave] him such royal majesty, as had not been on any king [prior to Solomon] in Israel.

Thus, David, [Jesse's] son, [ruled] over Israel [for] 40 years. [David ruled] 7 years in Hebron & 33 years, he [ruled] in Jerusalem. And [David] died [at] a good old age, full of [years,] riches & honor. And Solomon, [David's] son, [ruled] in his [place.]

Now, [look,] the [actions] of king David, 1st & last, are written in the Book of Samuel, the seer & in the book of Nathan, the prophet & the book of Gad, the seer, with all [David's] reign & his might & the [things that happened to] him & over Israel & over all the [neighboring] countries of [the] kingdoms.

1 Chronicles 28:1-21 David Tells of His Preparations for the Building of the Lord's House

 

David Tells of His Preparations for the Building of the Lord's House

1 Chronicles 28:1-21                   1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

David assembled [to] Jerusalem all the [officials] of Israel, the princes, [a.k.a. officials, over] the tribes, [a.k.a. families] & the captains of the companies [who served] the king by [divisions.]

[Also, he called:] the captains over 1,000's, captains over 100's & the [financial] stewards over all the [finances] & possessions of the: king, his sons, officers, mighty men & all the valiant men.

Then, king David stood upon his feet & said, [Listen to] me, my [relatives] & my people: As for me, I had [it] in my heart to build a house for [Lord's] Ark of the Covenant [to] rest & for the footstool of our God & had made ready [plans] for building [it.]

But God said to me, You shall not build a house for My Name, because you have been a man of war & have shed blood. [However,] the Lord God of Israel chose me before all the [family] of my father, to be the king over Israel forever.

For [God]  had chosen Judah to be the ruler. And [from] the [family] of Judah, [God] chose my [family] &  [from] among [family] of my father & among my [father’s] sons, [God] liked me & [made] me king over all Israel. And of all my sons, (for the Lord has given me many sons,) He has chosen Solomon, my son, to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the Lord, over Israel.

[The Lord God,] said to me, Solomon, your son, shall build My house & My [courtyards:] for I have chosen him to be My son & I will be his Father. [Also,] I will establish his kingdom forever, if he [consistently does] My commandments & My judgments, [like] this day.

Therefore, now in the sight of all Israel & the congregation of the Lord & in the audience of our God, seek for & [be careful] to keep all the commandments of the Lord your God: [so] that you may possess this good land & leave it for an inheritance for  your children after you forever.

And you, Solomon, my son, know the God of your father & serve Him with a [blameless] heart & with a willing mind. For the Lord searches all the hearts & understands [every evil plot & thought.]

If you seek Him, He will be found [by] you. But if you [abandon the Lord God,] He will cast you off forever. [Pay attention] now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong & do it.

Then, David gave to his son, Solomon, the pattern, [a.k.a. design or blueprint] of the porch & [its] houses, [its] treasuries, [its] upper [rooms & its] inner parlors & the place of the mercy seat.

And by the [Holy] Spirit, the pattern of all that he had [been given of:] the [courtyards,] the [Lord’s] house & all the [rooms around it,] the treasuries of God’s] house & the treasuries of the dedicated things.

Also, for the [divisions] of the priests, Levites & all the work [for serving in] the [Lord's] house & [all articles that pertain to the] service of the [Lord's] house.

[David] gave gold by weight for [all the] things of gold & for all [the] instruments for every [kind] of service. [He] also gave silver for all instruments of silver, by weight, for instruments of every kind of service.

[David] even [gave] the gold by weight for the gold candlesticks & the gold lamps & for every [gold] candlestick & [its] lamps, by weight. And [he] gave silver for both the candlesticks of silver & also for [its] lamps, according to the use of every candlestick.

[David] gave by weight, the gold for the tables shewbread, [a.k.a. the consecrated bread,] for every table & [also] silver for tables of silver. [He] also gave pure gold [by weight] for the [meat] hooks, the bowls, cups & every golden basin [sink or bowl.]

[David also gave] refined gold by weight for the incense altar & gold for the [design] of the chariot of the cherubims [angelic statues,] that spread out their wings & covered the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord [God.]

David said, All this, the Lord made [possible for] me to understand, the writing by [the Lord God's] hand, [given] to me, even all the [details] of this pattern.

And David said to Solomon, his son, Be strong & of good courage & do it. [Don't be fearful,] nor [distressed:] for the Lord God, [Who is also,] my God, will be with you. He will not fail you, nor [abandon] you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the [Lord's] house.

And, [look, the divisions] of the priests & the Levites, even [all of them] shall be with you for all the service of [God’s] house. And there shall be with you for all [types] of workmanship, every willing, skilful man, for any [type] of service. Also the princes & all the people will be [totally ready to assist you] at your [command.]
