Commentary

Matthew Henry on 1 Chronicles 17:1-15

Let us observe here, I. How desirous and solicitous good people should be to serve the interests of God's kingdom in the world, to the utmost of their capacity. David could not be easy in a house of cedar while the ark was lodged within curtains, Ch1 17:1. The concerns of the public should always be near our hearts.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Chronicles 17:9

Adam Clarke on 1 Chronicles 17:9

Tyndale Open Study Notes on 1 Chronicles 17:1-27

The larger section (13:1–17:27) concludes with Nathan’s prophecy about David and David’s prayer of thanks. 17:1-15 David wanted to build a home for the Ark that would equal his own palace, but the Lord designated David’s heir, Solomon (ch 22), to build the Temple. Jerusalem was to be the single place of worship for all Israel.
