2 Crônicas 6:16
Comentário de Ellicott sobre toda a Bíblia
Now therefore. — And now. So in 2 Crônicas 6:17.
Keep that which thou hast promised — i.e., Thy further promise. See the fulfilment of the former promise, as described in 2 Crônicas 6:10, supr.
There shall not fail thee. — See margin. Authorised Version follows LXX., Οὐκ ἐκλείψει σοι; and Vulg., “non deficiet ex te.”
To sit. — Heb., sitting; LXX., καθήμενος.
Yet so that. — Only if; assigning a single condition; provided that.... LXX., πλὴν ἐὰν φυλάξωσιν; Vulg., “ita tamen si custodierint.”
Take heed to. — Heb., keep (2 Crônicas 6:14).
In my law. — The only variant from 1 Reis 8:25. The chronicler has avoided a seeming tautology, as elsewhere. Syriac, “before me in the Law.”
