1 Chronicles 17-20, Song of Songs 1-2

Published: July 29, 2019, 4:05 a.m.

After King David reestablishes the tabernacle, he returns to his own home, a palace made of cedar, and thinks “Why does God dwell in a tent, while I, a mere man, dwell in a palace?” As his wheels begin to spin, he tells Nathan the prophet. Nathan tells David to go for it, but later receives a vision from the Lord. The Lord has never asked a house, but God flips the script and says, “You know what? I’m going to build a house from your family tree. A Son of David will build a house for me that will last forever. Later we’ll begin The Song of Songs which is about two lovers and their love. It is a book of poetry and symbolism; if you hear something and think, “Does that mean what I think it means?” the answer is probably, “Yup!”
