1 Chronicles 22:9 Summary

This verse tells us that Solomon, David's son, will be a king who brings peace and rest to Israel. Unlike his father David, who fought many wars, Solomon's reign will be marked by quiet and tranquility (1 Chronicles 22:8). This is a picture of the peace that God wants to bring to our lives, as seen in other parts of the Bible, such as Psalm 23:2, where it says 'He leads me beside quiet waters'. Just like Solomon, we can trust God to give us rest from our enemies and bring peace to our lives, and we can reflect this peace to those around us.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean that Solomon will be a 'man of rest'?

This phrase indicates that Solomon's reign will be characterized by peace and tranquility, unlike David's, which was marked by warfare (1 Chronicles 22:8). As the Bible says in 1 Chronicles 22:9, God will give him rest from all his enemies on every side.

Why was David not allowed to build the house of the Lord?

According to 1 Chronicles 22:8, David was not allowed to build the house of the Lord because he had shed much blood and waged great wars, which made him unsuitable for this task (also see 1 Kings 5:3).

What is the significance of Solomon's name in this context?

The name Solomon, which means 'peace', reflects the peaceful nature of his reign, as stated in 1 Chronicles 22:9, where God says He will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign.

How does this verse relate to God's promise to David?

This verse is part of God's promise to David, as seen in 2 Samuel 7:12-13, where God says that He will establish the throne of David's kingdom forever, and Solomon's peaceful reign is a fulfillment of that promise (1 Chronicles 22:10).

Gill's Exposition on 1 Chronicles 22:9

Behold, a son shall be born to thee,.... For this was said to David before the birth of Solomon, see 2 Samuel 7:12 who shall be a man of rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies round

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Chronicles 22:9

Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.

Trapp's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:9

1 Chronicles 22:9 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.Ver. 9. For his name shall be Solomon,] i.e., Peaceable: so Frederic, Solyman the Magnificent; but these answered not the signification of their names.

Ellicott's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:9

(9) Shall be born.—Is about to be born (participle). Who shall be.—He (emphatic) shall become a man of rest, opposed to “a man of war,” such as was David (2 Samuel 17:8; 1 Chronicles 28:3). The phrase is further explained by what follows. And I will give him rest from all his enemies round about—i.e., the surrounding peoples, who are his natural foes, seeing that they were brought under the yoke by his father, will acquiesce in his dominion. The same words are used, in a somewhat different sense. about David (2 Samuel 7:1); and in 1 Kings 5:4 Solomon applies them to himself. (Comp. also Proverbs 16:7.) Solomon.—The emphatic word. (See 2 Samuel 12:24.) The Hebrew is Shĕ ?lτmτ; for which the LXX. gives Sγlτmτn; Syriac, Shĕ ?leimϋn; Arabic, Suleimβn (same as “Solyman the Magnificent”). The original form of the word had the final n which we see in the cognate languages. The Assyrian Shalman (in Shalmaneser) and the Moabite Salamanu seem to be identical. The Vulg. has Pacificus (peace-maker). (Comp. the Greek Irenζeus, the German Friederich, our “Frederick,” peaceful.) Sŏ ?lŏ ?mon is the New Testament spelling. It would seem that the original name of Solomon was Jedidiah (2 Samuel 12:25), but posterity, looking back with fond regret to the palmy days of his reign, remembered him only as Shelomoh, “The Peaceful.” (See on 1 Chronicles 20:5.) And I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.—Literally, and peace and quietness will I put upon Israel, &c. His name will be a Divine augury of the character of his reign. Quietness (shθqet).—Only here; but compare the cognate verb (Judges 5:31 : “had rest”).

Adam Clarke's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:9

Verse 9. His name shall be Solomon] שלמה Shelomoh, from שלם shalam, he was peaceable; and therefore, says the Lord, alluding to the name, I will give PEACE, שלום SHALOM, in his days.

Cambridge Bible on 1 Chronicles 22:9

9. I will give him rest] Cp. 1 Kings 5:4. The promise here made is of a period of peace sufficiently long for the work of Temple-building. Solomon’s reign was not wholly peaceful; cp. 1 Kings 11:14; 1 Kings 11:23; 1 Kings 11:26.

Barnes' Notes on 1 Chronicles 22:9

For the names of Solomon, compare 2 Samuel 12:24 note. The former name prevailed, probably on account of this prophecy, which attached to the name the promise of a blessing.

Whedon's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 22:9

9. His name shall be Solomon — See note on 2 Samuel 12:24-25.
