Solomon, having blessed the people, blessed God12. Solomon's prayer in the consecration of the temple, upon the bronze platform. When they sin against You This phrase acknowledges the inevitability of human sinfulness. The Hebrew word for "sin" here is "חָטָא" (chata), which means to miss the mark or to fail. This reflects the biblical understanding that sin is a deviation from God's perfect standard. The phrase sets the stage for Solomon's prayer of dedication, recognizing that the people of Israel, despite their covenant relationship with God, are prone to sin. This acknowledgment is crucial in understanding the need for divine grace and forgiveness. for there is no one who does not sin and You become angry with them and deliver them to an enemy who takes them captive to a land far or near And they carry them away.--See margin. LXX., ?????????????????????? ?? ??????????????? ??????. Verses 36-39. - The matter of these verses is given fuller in the parallel (1 Kings 8:46-53). The prayer is remarkable all the more as the last of the whole series, and one so sadly ominous! The last clause of ver. 36, carrying the expression far off, as the alternative of near, throws its lurid glare of unwelcome suggestion on all the rest. No man which sinneth not. The words need the summoning of no biblical parallels, for these are so numerous. But out of the rest emphasis may be placed at least on those furnished by Solomon himself - Proverbs 20:9; Ecclesiastes 7:21; both of which are particularly sententious. Bethink themselves. The words well express, in English idiom, the literal Hebrew, as in margin, "bring back to their heart" (Deuteronomy 30:1-11). Have sinned, ... done amiss,... dealt wickedly (so Psalm 106:6; Daniel 9:5). The Authorized Version in the parallel (1 Kings 8:47) is somewhat happier in its rendering of the three verbs employed here. It seems doubtful whether these have it in them to form a climax; more probably they speak of three different directions in wrong going. The parallel is well worthy of being referred to, in its vers. 50, 51.Parallel Commentaries ...
