1 Chronicles 14:1
_ _ 1 Chronicles 14:1, 1 Chronicles 14:2. Hiram’s kindness to David; David’s felicity.
_ _ Now Hiram king of Tyre — [See on 2 Samuel 5:11]. The alliance with this neighboring king, and the important advantages derived from it, were among the most fortunate circumstances in David’s reign. The providence of God appeared concurrent with His promise in smoothing the early course of his reign. Having conquered the Jebusites and made Zion the royal residence, he had now, along with internal prosperity, established an advantageous treaty with a neighboring prince; and hence, in immediate connection with the mention of this friendly league, it is said, “David perceived that the Lord had confirmed him king over Israel.” |
1 Chronicles 14:1-7
_ _ We may observe here, 1. There is no man that has such a sufficiency in himself but he has need of his neighbours and has reason to be thankful for their help: David had a very large kingdom, Hiram a very little one; yet David could not build himself a house to his mind unless Hiram furnished him with both workmen and materials, 1 Chronicles 14:1. This is a reason why we should despise none, but, as we have opportunity, be obliging to all. 2. It is a great satisfaction to a wise man to be settled, and to a good man to see the special providences of God in his settlement. The people had made David king; but he could not be easy, nor think himself happy, till he perceived that the Lord had confirmed him king over Israel, 1 Chronicles 14:2. “Who shall unfix me if God hath fixed me?” 3. We must look upon all our advancements as designed for our usefulness. David's kingdom was lifted up on high, not for his own sake, that he might look great, but because of his people Israel, that he might be a guide and protector to them. We are blessed in order that we may be blessings. See Genesis 12:2. We are not born, nor do we live, for ourselves. 4. It is difficult to thrive without growing secure and indulgent to the flesh. It was David's infirmity that when he settled in his kingdom he took more wives (1 Chronicles 14:3), yet the numerous issue he had added to his honour and strength. Lo, children are a heritage of the Lord. We had an account of David's children, not only in Samuel, but in this book (1 Chronicles 3:1, etc.) and now here again; for it was their honour to have such a father. |
