1 Chronicles29:22
1Ch 29:22
On this day they made Solomon king a second time, anointing him king to the Lord, and Zadok to be priest, i.e., high priest. The שׁנית refers back to 1Ch 23:1, and the first anointing of Solomon narrated in 1Ki 1:32. ליהיה, not: before Jahve, which ל cannot signify, but: “to Jahve,” in accordance with His will expressed in His choice of Solomon (1Ch 28:4). The ל before צדוק is nota accus., as in לשׁלמה. From the last words we learn that Zadok received the high-priesthood with the consent of the estates of the kingdom.
