Commentary on 1 Chronicles 7:4

Theological / Devotional

Word of the Lord came. The communication was distinctly marked as coming from God (see on v. 3), and was in direct opposition to Nathan’s earlier expressed view. There is no evidence, however, of any spirit of rebellion on the part of Nathan when he was asked to return to the king and acknowledge his previous error. It requires divine grace to admit that one has made a mistake and to set about graciously to rectify the error.
