1 Chronicles 22:1-4 King James Version (KJV)
22 Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
2 And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in abundance without weight;
4 Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
1 Chronicles 22:1-4 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
22 And David saith, `This is the house of Jehovah God, and this the altar for burnt-offering for Israel.'
2 And David saith to gather the sojourners who [are] in the land of Israel, and appointeth hewers to hew hewn-stones to build a house of God.
3 And iron in abundance for nails for leaves of the gates, and for couplings, hath David prepared, and brass in abundance -- there is no weighing.
4 And cedar-trees even without number, for the Zidonians and the Tyrians brought in cedar-trees in abundance to David.
These are my thoughts, please share yours.
1 David wanted to build the Lord’s temple because of the Lord’s mercy. David was not doing this to bring glory to David but so that he could honor God.
2 David started planning right away. This would be a permanent building God’s house would soon no longer be a tent.
3-4 David got everything that would be needed David wanted this to built now. God often wants us to plan because He has everything planned for us.
