1 Kings 11:36

And unto his son will I give one tribe [cf. 1 Kings 11:32 , note], that David my servant may have a light alway before me [The same expression is found in 1 Kings 15:4 ; 2 Kings 8:19 ; 2 Chronicles 21:7 ; and compare Psalms 132:17 . Keil would explain it by 2 Samuel 21:17 ; but 2 Samuel 14:7 , "my coal which is left," appears to be a closer parallel. The idea is not that of a home (Rawlinson), but family, issue . We speak of the extinction of a family (Bähr) ] in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.
