Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on 2 Samuel 7:4-17.


2 Samuel 7:13

_ _ He shall build an house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever — This declaration referred, in its primary application, to Solomon, and to the temporal kingdom of David’s family. But in a larger and sublimer sense, it was meant of David’s Son of another nature (Hebrews 1:8). [See on 1 Chronicles 17:14.]

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Samuel 7:4-17.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Samuel 7:13

He shall — This is meant literally of Solomon, who alone did build the material house or temple; but ultimately of Christ, who is the builder of God's spiritual house or temple. For my name — That is, for my service, and glory. For ever — This is not meant of Solomon, for his kingdom was not for ever. But it is to be understood of David's posterity, in general, and with special respect to Christ, in whose person the kingdom was to be lodged for ever.
