Commentary on 1 Kings 8:21

Theological / Devotional

The covenant. The Ten Commandments are here called “the covenant,” because they formed the basis of the covenant between God and His people. The covenant was the plan whereby the holy principles revealed in the law were to be reproduced in man. Thus by a figure of speech the law is called the covenant. From the earliest days of man it has been God’s desire to write His holy law in human hearts.
