He exhorts both Solomon and the nation’s leaders to follow Moses’ law and to build the temple with aplomb. II. Photo David sets aside a superabundance of materials for his son Solomon: “Much iron for nails for the doors of the gates and for clasps did David lay aside, and so much copper it could not be weighed, and cedar logs without number — for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought many cedar logs to David.” (vv. 3-4) III. Important Verses vv. 1-2, 5: David said, “Here will be the House of the LORD and here the altar of burnt offerings for Israel.” David gave orders to assemble the aliens living in the land of Israel, and assigned them to be hewers, to quarry and dress stones for building the House of God… For David thought, “My son Solomon is an untried youth, and the House to be built for the LORD is to be made exceedingly great ...

  READ FULL CHAPTER   HERE COORDINATOR   : AFOLABI JOSEPH OLAJIDE Joab led out the armed forces… But David remained at Jerusalem : David should have been out at the battle but he remained behind.  What happened when David remained at Jerusalem was so well known that the Chronicler did not need to record it. In his leisure he saw a woman bathing, acting upon his feelings of lust, committed adultery with her making her pregnant, and conspired with Joab to murder her husband (Uriah, one of David’s mighty men) to cover up his crime. A lot happened between David stayed at Jerusalem and Joab defeated Rabbah . Beware of moments and hours of ease.

One thing I noticed from the comment Joab made in vs 13 is total surrender to the will of Go...
