Context — Preparations for the Temple
1Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the Name of the LORD and a royal palace for himself.
2So he conscripted 70,000 porters, 80,000 stonecutters in the mountains, and 3,600 supervisors. 3Then Solomon sent word to Hiram king of Tyre: “Do for me as you did for my father David when you sent him cedars to build himself a house to live in.Cross References

2 Chronicles 2:1 Summary
This verse tells us that Solomon wanted to build a special house for God and a palace for himself. He wanted to honor God and have a place where people could worship Him, just like in Exodus 25:8 where God instructs the Israelites to build a sanctuary for His Name to dwell. Solomon's decision to build these structures shows that he was thinking about his priorities and what was truly important, and we can learn from his example by considering what we prioritize in our own lives. By seeking to build a 'house' for God, Solomon was recognizing God's presence and authority in his life, as seen in 1 Kings 5:5, where Solomon prepares to build the temple.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to build a house for the Name of the LORD?
This refers to constructing a temple where God's presence would dwell among His people, as seen in Exodus 25:8 and 1 Kings 5:5, where God instructs the Israelites to build a sanctuary for His Name to dwell.
Why did Solomon want to build a royal palace for himself at the same time as the temple?
Solomon's desire to build a palace for himself alongside the temple may indicate his desire for a symbol of his earthly power and authority, but it also shows his recognition of God's sovereignty, as stated in Proverbs 21:1, where the king's heart is in the hand of the LORD.
Is it significant that Solomon 'purposed' to build these structures?
Yes, the fact that Solomon 'purposed' to build the temple and his palace suggests a deliberate and intentional decision, reflecting his commitment to fulfill his father David's legacy, as mentioned in 1 Chronicles 28:2-6, where David passes on the plans for the temple to Solomon.
How does this verse relate to the rest of Solomon's story in the Bible?
This verse sets the stage for the rest of Solomon's story, including his interactions with Hiram king of Tyre, as seen in 2 Chronicles 2:3, and the eventual completion of the temple, as described in 1 Kings 8:1-66, where Solomon dedicates the temple to the LORD.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can intentionally prioritize God's presence in my life, just as Solomon did by building a temple?
- How can I balance my earthly responsibilities and desires with my spiritual pursuits, as Solomon seemed to be doing in this verse?
- In what ways can I, like Solomon, recognize and honor God's sovereignty over my life and plans?
- What are some 'houses' or structures in my life that need to be built or rebuilt, and how can I seek God's guidance and wisdom in these endeavors?
Gill's Exposition on 2 Chronicles 2:1
And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the Lord,.... For the worship and service of God, and for his honour and glory, being directed, enjoined, and encouraged to it by his father
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Chronicles 2:1
And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the LORD, and an house for his kingdom. Solomon determined to build.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 2:1
2 CHAPTER 2 Solomon appointeth workmen to build the temple: his embassage to king Huram for workmen and materials, promising to furnish him with victuals, . Huram’ s kindness, . Solomon numbereth and divideth the workmen, ,18. i.e. A royal palace for himself and his successors. This whole chapter, for the substance of it, is contained in 1Ki 5, and in the notes there it is explained, and the seeming differences reconciled.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 2:1
2 Chronicles 2:1 And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the LORD, and an house for his kingdom.Ver. 1. And Solomon determined.] Heb., Said. He slighted not the divine oracle nor his father’ s charge; but was still plodding and talking of it to himself till it was done. To build a house for the name of the Lord.] See 1 Kings 5:3, and compare this chapter with that: the one giveth light to the other; as glasses set one against another do cast a mutual light. And a house for his kingdom.] David had built a fair palace: but Solomon’ s far exceeded it: this was a house for his kingdom. Our William Rufus found much fault with Westminster Hall for being built too small: and took a plot for one far more spacious to be added unto it. Dan., Hist.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 2:1
(1) Determined.—Literally, said, which may mean either commanded, as in 2 Chronicles 1:2; 1 Chronicles 21:17, or thought, purposed, resolved, as in 1 Kings 5:5. The context seems to favour the latter sense. And an house for his kingdom.—Or, for his royalty; that is, as the Vulg. renders, a palace for himself. Solomon’s royal palace is mentioned again in 2 Chronicles 2:12; 2 Chronicles 7:11; 2 Chronicles 8:1; but the building of it is not related in the Chronicle. (See 1 Kings 7:1-12.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 2:1
CHAPTER II Solomon determines to build a temple, 1. The number of his workmen, 2. Sends to Huram for artificers and materials, 3-10. Huram sends him a favourable answer, and makes an agreement with him concerning the labour to be done, and the wages to be paid to his men, 11-16. The number of strangers in the land, and how employed, 17, 18. NOTES ON CHAP. II Verse 1. A house for the name of the Lord] A temple for the worship of Jehovah.
