Since the day: Sa2 7:6, Sa2 7:7; Kg1 8:16 my name: Exo 20:24, Exo 23:21; Deu 12:5, Deu 12:11; Dan 9:19 neither chose: The judges and Saul were chosen by God, for a season, to be rulers of Israel; but not to establish a permanent and hereditary authority over that people, as was the case with David. This clause is wanting in the parallel passage of Kings; but it helps to clear the sense. Sa1 10:24, Sa1 13:13, Sa1 13:14, Sa1 15:23; Sa2 7:15, Sa2 7:16 2 Chronicles 6:6
