Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

He is earnest in prayer for the accomplishment of this prophecy and promise: Let the whole earth be filled with his glory, as it will be when the kings of Tarshish, and the isles, shall bring presents to him. It is sad to think how empty the earth is of the glory of God, how little service and honour he has from a world to which he is such a bountiful benefactor.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

It was a comfort to David that his own son was to be his successor, but more so that he was likely to be both judicious and righteous. David had given him a good education ( Prov. iv. 3 ), had taught him good judgment and righteous, yet that would not do unless God gave him his judgments.
