1 Chronicles17:1
CHAPTER 17
1Ch 17:1-10. David Forbidden to Build God a House.
1. as David sat in his house--The details of this chapter were given in nearly similar terms (2Sa 7:1-29). The date was towards the latter end of David's reign, for it is expressly said in the former book to have been at the cessation of all his wars. But as to narrate the preparations for the removal of the ark and the erection of the temple was the principal object of the historian, the exact chronology is not followed.
