The Davidic Covenant brought David's reign to its high point. In it God promised to David an enduring house - a royal dynasty and everlasting kingdom. The Lord also granted David's desire for a sanctuary in Jerusalem. However, Yahweh appointed the son promised in the covenant, and not David himself, to build His house. Solomon had been chosen to erect the temple because it was prophetically necessary that the Lord's house be built in the context of the kingdom's peace and rest. For Solomon's labors in that regard prefigured those of David's greater son who would build Yahweh's true sanctuary. He, too, would erect the Lord's sanctuary after the enemies of the kingdom had been defeated and peace and rest had been secured. This sermon considers this theme in greater detail, particularly as it implicates the priestly aspect of the Davidic Covenant revealed most clearly in Psalm 110.
