11 asince the time that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel, and have caused you to rest from all your enemies. Also the Lord1 tells you bthat He will make you a house.

13 aHe shall build a house for My name, and I will bestablish the throne of his kingdom forever.

15 But My mercy shall not depart from him, aas I took it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.  
16 And ayour house and your kingdom shall be established forever before1 you. Your throne shall be established forever.” ’ ”  
17 According to all these words and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.

2 Samuel 7:13

He shall build an house ... - For the fulfillment of this in the person of Solomon, see I Kings 8:16-20. For its application to Christ, see John 1:12; Ephesians 1:20-22; I Timothy 3:15; Hebrews 3:6; etc.; and Zechariah 6:12-13.

I will stablish the throne of his kingdom forever - The words forever, emphatically twice repeated in II Samuel 7:16, show very distinctly that this prophecy looks beyond the succession of the kings of Judah of the house of David, and embraces the throne of Christ according to the Angel' s interpretation given in Luke 1:31-33, where the reference to this passage cannot be mistaken. This is also brought out fully in Psalms 89:29, Psalms 89:36-37. See also Daniel 7:13-14; Isaiah 9:6-7; Jeremiah 23:5-6; Jeremiah 33:14-21; Ezekiel 34:24; Zechariah 12:7-8; Hosea 3:5, etc.
