1 Chron 28:1–21 This section resumes in a public setting David’s private exhortation to Solomon in ch. 22. The audience (28:1) consists of the leaders listed in ch. 27, along with David’s leading soldiers (see 11:10–12:40).
1 Chron 28:4–5 Solomon is the only OT king after David said to have been chosen by God.
1 Chron 28:6 Solomon . . . shall build my house. See 17:11–14; 22:9–10.
1 Chron 28:7, 9 The establishment of Solomon’s kingdom depends on his obedience to Yahweh. He will be obedient in building the temple, but will fail to serve God with a whole heart (see 1 Kings 11:4).
1 Chron 28:11–19 The gold and silver temple vessels (vv. 14–17) were later removed by the Babylonians (2 Chron. 36:18) but were then returned by the Persians, after the exile (Ezra 1:7–11). Their presence in the postexilic temple, in the days when the Chronicler was writing, were a sign of God’s covenant faithfulness to his people.
1 Chron 28:19 in writing from the hand of the Lord. David may be claiming prophetic inspiration for his temple plans (compare 2 Chron. 29:25). Or, he may be making a stronger claim: that God actually gave him the temple plans in writing (compare Ex. 24:12; 31:18).
1 Chron 28:20–21 David charges Solomon in public, just as he had previously done in private (22:11–13).
