역사서 1–9장: 솔로몬과 성전

유다의 왕들은 하나님과 그분의 성전에 대한 신실함에 따라 흥하고 망합니다.

역대하는 솔로몬의 지혜와 성전 건축 및 봉헌으로 시작합니다. 그곳에서 하나님은 백성이 스스로 낮추고 기도하면 들으시겠다고 약속하십니다.

저자: 미상; 전통적으로 에스라의 저작으로 봄 · 기록 연대: 기원전 450–400년경 기록된 것으로 추정

1솔로몬이 여호와의 성전과 자기 궁전을 짓는 데 20년이 걸렸다. 2그리고 그는 두로의 히람왕이 그에게 준 성들을 재건하여 이스라엘 사람들을 그 곳에 살게 하였다. 3또 솔로몬이 하맛 – 소바성을 쳐서 점령한 것도 이 당시였다. 4그리고 그는 광야에 다드몰을 건설하고 하맛에 여러 국고성을 건축했으며 5위 벧 – 호론과 아래 벧 – 호론을 요새화하여 성벽을 쌓고 빗장을 칠 수 있는 성문을 만들어 세웠다. 6그는 또 바알랏과 여러 국고성을 짓고 전차와 말을 수용할 성들을 세웠으며 예루살렘과 레바논과 그의 전 영토에 자기가 짓고 싶은 것을 모두 건축하였다. 7-8 솔로몬은 이스라엘 사람들이 가나안 땅 을 점령했을 때 그들이 완전히 죽이지 않고 살려 둔 가나안 사람들의 모든 후손들에게 강제 노동을 시켰다. 이들의 조상들은 헷족, 아모리족, 브리스족, 히위족, 여부스족이었으며 살아 남은 이들 후손들은 계속 사역군으로 일하며 살았다. 9그러나 솔로몬이 이스라엘 백성은 사역군으로 삼지 않고 사병, 군 지휘관, 전차 부대와 기병대 대장으로 삼았다. 10그리고 그는 이스라엘 사람 250명을 뽑아 이 사역군들의 업무를 감독하게 하였다. 11솔로몬은 그의 아내인 바로의 딸을 예루살렘의 다윗성에서 새로 지은 궁전으로 이사를 시키고 이렇게 말하였다. “내 아내는 다윗궁에 살아서는 안 된다. 이것은 여호와의 궤가 있던 그 곳이 거룩한 땅이기 때문이다.” 12솔로몬은 성전 현관 앞에 쌓은 여호와의 단에 번제를 드렸는데 13그는 모세가 지시한 대로 매일 드리는 제사 외에도 안식일과 매월 초하루와 또 연례적으로 지키는 세 명절, 곧 누룩 넣지 않은 빵을 먹는 무교절과 오순절이라고도 부르는 칠칠절과 그리고 초막절에도 번제를 드렸다. 14또 솔로몬은 제사장들에게 업무를 맡기는 일에 있어서도 그의 아버지 다윗이 만들어 놓은 규정을 따랐으며 레위인들에게는 매일 찬송하고 제사장들을 돕는 일과 그리고 순번에 따라 성전 문을 지키는 일을 맡겼다. 15이와 같이 솔로몬은 제사장과 레위인들에게 업무를 맡기는 일이나 국고에 관한 일이나 무슨 일에든지 다윗이 지시한 것에서 조금도 벗어나지 않았다. 16이렇게 해서 솔로몬은 성전 건축을 성공적으로 완성하였다. 17그러고서 그는 에돔 땅의 아카바만 연안에 있는 에시온 – 게벨과 엘랏으로 갔다. 18그러자 히람왕은 자기 신하들의 지휘하에 배와 노련한 선원들을 그에게 보냈고 그들은 솔로몬의 종들과 함께 오빌에 가서 약 15톤이나 되는 금을 실어 와 솔로몬에게 주었다.

2 Chronicles 8
Benson Commentary 2 Chronicles 8:1 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house, A.M. 3012. — B.C. 992. Solomon’s buildings, 2 Chronicles 8:1-6 . His workmen and officers, 2 Chronicles 8:7-10 . He settles his wife, 2 Chronicles 8:11 . Fixes the method of the temple-service, 2 Chronicles 8:12-16 . His trade, 2 Chronicles 8:17 , 2 Chronicles 8:18 . 2 Chronicles 8:2 . The cities which Huram had restored — Which Solomon gave to Hiram, but which, not being pleased with them, he restored to him again, 1 Kings 9:12 . Solomon built them — That is, rebuilt them, and placed his own subjects in them. 2 Chronicles 8:4 . He built Tadmor — For the explanation of this and the following verses, see notes on 1 Kings 9:17-18 , &c. 2 Chronicles 8:11 . Unto the house which he had built — This house he had built for her, because the ark was now in the house of David, which therefore ought to be kept pure and free from every danger and appearance of pollution. For though Pharaoh’s daughter was proselyted to the Jewish religion, and had renounced idolatry, it is not likely that both she and all her servants had embraced the whole law of Moses; and therefore they might many ways defile a place made sacred by that symbol of the divine presence. 2 Chronicles 8:14 . So had David the man of God commanded — David is here called the man of God, as Moses had been, because he was a prophet divinely inspired, and was both instructed and authorized of God to make these establishments. Hence his commands are represented as being the commands of God. And Solomon, though a wise and great man, and the builder of the temple, did not attempt to amend, alter, or add to, what the man of God had commanded in God’s name, but closely adhered to it, and used his authority to have it duly observed. 2 Chronicles 8:15-16 . They departed not from the commandment of the king — He obeyed God’s commands enjoined by David, in God’s name, and by inspiration of God’s Spirit, and therefore all obeyed his orders. Now all the work of Solomon was prepared — All the materials were procured, and in all points fitted and completed beforehand. So the house of God was perfected — This is now said, because the service of the temple was now put into this good order. The work was the main matter, not the place: the temple was unfinished till all this was done. 2 Chronicles 8:2 That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. 2 Chronicles 8:3 And Solomon went to Hamathzobah, and prevailed against it. 2 Chronicles 8:4 And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath. 2 Chronicles 8:5 Also he built Bethhoron the upper, and Bethhoron the nether, fenced cities, with walls, gates, and bars; 2 Chronicles 8:6 And Baalath, and all the store cities that Solomon had, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout all the land of his dominion. 2 Chronicles 8:7 As for all the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which were not of Israel, 2 Chronicles 8:8 But of their children, who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, them did Solomon make to pay tribute until this day. 2 Chronicles 8:9 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen. 2 Chronicles 8:10 And these were the chief of king Solomon's officers, even two hundred and fifty, that bare rule over the people. 2 Chronicles 8:11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy, whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come. 2 Chronicles 8:12 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch, 2 Chronicles 8:13 Even after a certain rate every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. 2 Chronicles 8:14 And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded. 2 Chronicles 8:15 And they departed not from the commandment of the king unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures. 2 Chronicles 8:16 Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected. 2 Chronicles 8:17 Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom. 2 Chronicles 8:18 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.

2 Chronicles 8
That the cities. 2 Chronicles 8:1-6 Solomon's military enterprises J. Wolfendale. Chiefly in acquiring cities rebuilt and taken from the enemy. I. Cities for STORES ( 1 Kings 9:19 ). II. Cities for COLONISATION. III. Cities for PLEASURE. IV. Cities for DEFENCE. Lessons: 1. That those who attend to the spiritual will not neglect the temporal interests of a nation. 2. That amidst the temporal interests of a nation great risks exist. Hence — (1) Lessons of prudence. (2) The danger of prosperity. ( J. Wolfendale. ) And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh. 2 Chronicles 8:11 Solomon and Pharaoh's daughter J. Parker, D. D. We are to see in Solomon's action the working of a tender conscience; even though he may be appeasing his conscience by some trick or ceremony, yet he is showing us the working of the moral nature within the kingly breast. Yet there is a point to be noted here which is common to human experience: why should Solomon have married the daughter of Pharaoh? Why should he have, in the first instance, placed himself in so vital a relation to heathenism? Are there not men who first plunge into great mistakes, and then seek to rectify their position by zealous care about comparatively trifling details? Do not men make money by base means, and then zealously betake themselves to book-keeping, as if they would not spend money except in approved directions? Are there not those who have steeped their hearts in iniquity, and yet have washed their hands with soap and nitre? We are to beware of the creation of a false or a partial conscience, that makes up for sins of a larger kind by ostentatious devotion at the altar of detail and ceremony and petty ritual. ( J. Parker, D. D. ) Solomon's marriage J. Wolfendale. Consider Solomon's marriage with an Egyptian princess — I. AS A MATTER OF POLICY. It sprang from — 1. A desire to counteract the influence of Hadad ( 1 Kings 11:14-20 ). 2. The wish to obtain support for his new dynasty and recognition from one of older fame and greater power. 3. Anxiety to strengthen himself by foreign alliances. II. AS A SOURCE OF MORAL PERPLEXITY. What must be done with her? Solomon felt that a broad distinction must be made between the worship of Jehovah and idolatry. III. AS THE BEGINNING OF TROUBLE. The policy advantageous at first, but ultimately proved hollow and impolitic. The reign which began so gloriously ended in gross darkness and fetish worship. ( J. Wolfendale. ) Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the Lord. 2 Chronicles 8:12, 18 Solomon's burnt offerings J. Parker, D. D. Solomon was great in burnt offerings. Do not men sometimes make up in burnt offerings what they lack in moral consistency? Is not an ostentatious religion sometimes the best proof of internal decay? It ought not to be so. The outward and inward should correspond. The action should be the incarnation of the thought. It is beautiful to look upon the Church engaged in much church-building and in strenuous endeavours against public sin; yet we must never forget that all this may possibly coexist with internal loss, decay, corruption. All action does not spring from life. Sometimes we try to make up by complex mechanism what is wanting in real vitality. It is often easier to offer burnt offering than to do some deed of moral heroism. ( J. Parker, D. D. ) As the duty of every day required. 2 Chronicles 8:14 Duty W. R. Hutton, M. A. To some Christians "the sense of duty" and kindred phrases sound unattractive and suspicious. Yet it is dangerous even to minimise the sense of duty. A man who makes no terms with conscience, but does what God commands, will find his love grow stronger. A Christian's sense of duty is not the same as the sense of duty of one who has no faith. Natural religion would teach a man to be honest, sober, and industrious, but Christ's teaching goes far beyond this. Religious duties; purity of heart; forgiveness of others, etc . But it is in the realm of supernatural help, prayer, and the sacraments that the greatest divergence is seen. "As the duty of every day required." Words such as these suggest that unless we are living a life of prayer, unless we are partaking of the life of Christ in the means He left for us to use, we are undutiful. What we claim for our religion is this — 1. The personal love of Christ will make us more severe with ourselves in performing "hard, unwelcome" duties of every day. 2. It will also claim from us earnest prayer, belief in the grace of the Holy Spirit, etc . ( W. R. Hutton, M. A. ).
Matthew Henry
2 Chronicles 8
8:1 - 18 Solomon's buildings and trade. - It sometimes requires more wisdom and resolution to govern a family in the fear of God, than to govern a kingdom with reputation. The difficulty is increased, when a man has a hinderance instead of a help meet in the wife of his bosom. Solomon kept up the holy sacrifices, according to the law of Moses. In vain had the altar been built, in vain had fire come down from heaven, if sacrifices had not been constantly brought. Spiritual sacrifices are required of us, which we are to bring daily and weekly; it is good to be in a settled method of devotion. When the service of the temple was put into good order, it is said, The house of the Lord was perfected. The work was the main matter, not the place; the temple was unfinished till all this was done. Canaan was a rich country, and yet must send to Ophir for gold The Israelites were a wise people, but must be beholden to the king of Tyre for men that had knowledge of the seas. Grace, and not gold, is the best riches, and acquaintance with God and his law, the best knowledge. Leaving the children of this world to scramble for the toys of this world, may we, as the children of God, lay up our treasure in heaven, that where our treasure is, our hearts also may be.
