- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 15The exact words of 1 Kings 8:18, what was merely tacitly implied was regarded as actually “said.”Read the comment

The dark dispensations of Providence should quicken us in fleeing for refuge to the hope of the gospel.

Whatever good we do, we must look on it as the performance of God's promise to us, not of our promises to him.Read the comment
