**assembled** = convoked, or mustered.
**princes of Israel.** Compare [1 Chronicles 27:16-22](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/27/16-22) .
**captains** = princes (throughout the chapter). See note on [1 Chronicles 27:1](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/27/1) .
**stewards.** Compare [1 Chronicles 27:25-31](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/27/25-31) . Each body consisted of twelve persons. App-10 .

**stood up upon his feet.** Note David's three attitudes: lying on the earth as a *penitent* ([2 Samuel 12:16](../../../kjv/2-samuel/12/16) . Compare [Psalms 51](../../../kjv/psalms/51) ); sitting before Jehovah as a *worshipper* ([2 Samuel 7:18](../../../kjv/2-samuel/7/18) . [2 Samuel 17:16](../../../kjv/2-samuel/17/16) ); and standing on his feet as a *servant* (28, 2).
**the ark.** See note on [1 Chronicles 13:3](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/13/3) and [Exodus 25:22](../../../kjv/exodus/25/22) .
**and** = even.
**the footstool of our God** = the Ark. Figure of speech *Anthropopatheia.* App-6 .
**God.** Hebrew. *Elohim.* App-4 .

**chose me.** Compare [1 Samuel 16:12](../../../kjv/1-samuel/16/12) .
**chosen Judah.** Compare [Genesis 49:10](../../../kjv/genesis/49/10) .

**chosen Solomon.** Compare [1 Chronicles 22:9](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/22/9) . [2 Samuel 12:25](../../../kjv/2-samuel/12/25) .

**He said unto me.** Compare [1 Chronicles 22:9](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/22/9) . [2 Samuel 7:13](../../../kjv/2-samuel/7/13) , [2 Samuel 7:14](../../../kjv/2-samuel/7/14) .

**congregation** = assembly as in [1 Chronicles 28:1](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/28/1) .
**seek.** Hebrew. *darash.* See notes on 1Ch 10:13 , [1 Chronicles 10:14](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/10/14) ; [1 Samuel 28:6](../../../kjv/1-samuel/28/6) , [1 Samuel 28:7](../../../kjv/1-samuel/28/7) .
**children** = sons.

**mind** = soul. Hebrew. *nephesh.* App-13 .

**Take heed, &c.** The 11th *Seder* begins here, and ends with [2 Chronicles 2:2](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/2/2) . See note on p. 366.

**the pattern.** Same word as of Tabernacle to Moses ([Exodus 25:9](../../../kjv/exodus/25/9) , [Exodus 25:40](../../../kjv/exodus/25/40) . See [Hebrews 9:5](../../../kjv/hebrews/9/5) ).
**thereof:** i.e. of the sanctuary.
**mercy seat** = the propitiatory. See note on [Exodus 25:17](../../../kjv/exodus/25/17) .

**by the Spirit.** Hebrew "by the Spirit ( *ruach* . App-9 ) with (or in) me". The pattern without, and the worship within, all of God. Nothing can be offered in worship but what comes from God ([John 4:24](../../../kjv/john/4/24) ). Therefore said to be built by David in *intention,* and by Solomon in *fact.*
**chambers** = attached chambers.

**basons** = covered bowls.

**of** = even. Genitive of Apposition. See App-17 .

**Be strong, and of a good courage.** See note on [Deuteronomy 31:7](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/31/7) .
