1 Crónicas 22:1 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 22:1

Then David said
Within himself, or to some principal persons about him:

this is the house of the Lord God;
the place where the temple was to be built, hinted at in ( Deuteronomy 12:5 ) and elsewhere; the meaning is, here, or in "this" place, shall be the house of God, so Noldius ^F15, for as yet there were none; but it was now made known to David that here it should be built, and so the words in ( 2 Chronicles 3:1 ) should be rendered,

then Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, which
was shown to David his father, which he prepared in the place of David,
that which he bought in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite: and
this is the altar for the burnt offering for Israel;
not which he had built here; but this is the place where one should be built for the people of Israel to bring their offerings to, and to be here offered for them by the priests: this he said by a divine impulse upon his mind, or which he concluded from the acceptance of his sacrifice here, signified by fire that came down from heaven and consumed it; and this being in the threshingfloor of the Jebusites, might prefigure the church of God to be built up among the Gentiles.

1 Crónicas 22:1 In-Context

1 Entonces David dijo: Esta es la casa del SEÑOR Dios, y este es el altar del holocausto para Israel.

2 Y dio órdenes David de reunir a los extranjeros que estaban en la tierra de Israel, y designó canteros para labrar piedras para edificar la casa de Dios.

3 Preparó David grandes cantidades de hierro para hacer clavos para las puertas de la entrada y para las grapas, y más bronce del que podía pesarse;

4 y madera de cedro incalculable, porque los sidonios y los tirios trajeron grandes cantidades de madera de cedro a David.

5 Y dijo David: Mi hijo Salomón es joven y sin experiencia, y la casa que ha de edificarse al SEÑOR será de gran magnificencia, de renombre y de gloria por todas las tierras. Por tanto haré preparativos para ella. Y David hizo grandes preparativos antes de su muerte.
