He charges the princes to assist his son But a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest. This phrase is a prophecy given to King David regarding his son Solomon. The term "man of rest" signifies a ruler who will not be engaged in constant warfare, unlike David, who was a warrior king. The concept of rest is significant in biblical theology, often symbolizing peace and divine favor. Solomon's reign is characterized by peace and prosperity, allowing him to focus on building the temple, a task David could not complete due to his many battles. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his name will be Solomon, and I will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign. Persons / Places / Events 1. DavidThe King of Israel who desired to build a temple for the Lord but was told by God that his son would fulfill this task. 2. Solomon The son of David, prophesied to be a "man of rest" and the one who would build the temple, bringing peace and prosperity to Israel. 3. Israel The nation chosen by God, which would experience peace and quiet during Solomon's reign. 4. Enemies The surrounding nations and adversaries from whom God promised to give rest to Israel during Solomon's reign. 5.

Teaching Points God's Sovereignty in Fulfillment of PromisesGod's promise to David about Solomon shows His control over history and His faithfulness in fulfilling His word. The Importance of Peace for God's Work Solomon's reign of peace allowed for the construction of the temple, illustrating how peace can facilitate the work of God in our lives. Legacy and Preparation David's preparation for the temple, even though he would not build it, teaches us about the importance of preparing the way for future generations. Spiritual Rest in Christ Just as Solomon brought physical rest to Israel, Jesus offers spiritual rest to believers, inviting us to find peace in Him. The Role of Obedience in God's Plan Solomon's obedience in building the temple highlights the importance of following God's instructions to fulfill His purposes.(9) Shall be born.--Is about to be born (participle). Who shall be.--He (emphatic) shall become a man of rest, opposed to "a man of war," such as was David (2Samuel 17:8; 1Chronicles 28:3). The phrase is further explained by what follows. And I will give him rest from all his enemies round about--i.e., the surrounding peoples, who are his natural foes, seeing that they were brought under the yoke by his father, will acquiesce in his dominion. The same words are used, in a somewhat different sense. about David (2Samuel 7:1); and in 1Kings 5:4 Solomon applies them to himself. (Comp. also Proverbs 16:7.) . . . Verse 9. - Shall be born. This is not the necessary translation of the verb. The form נולָד does not express here future time. Solomon was already born when the word of the Lord came to David. On the other hand, we may suppose special emphasis to belong to the clause, His name shall be Solomon. The name designates the man of peace, and the clause is an announcement, probably intended to throw further into the shade the alternative name Jedidiah, which also had been divinely given (2 Samuel 12:24, 25).Parallel Commentaries ...
