Context of 1 Chronicles 28:12

10You must realize that the Lord has chosen you to build a temple to be his special home. Now you must be strong! Do this work.’ 11Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the temple buildings. That included the entrance room, the rooms to store things, the upstairs rooms and the inside rooms. And it included the Most Holy Place where the Covenant Box would be. David showed Solomon the ideas that God had put in his mind. He gave him the plans for the yards around the Lord's temple and the rooms around the yards. There were also plans of the rooms to store the valuable things and the gifts that people had offered to God. 13David gave Solomon the rules for the work of the priests and Levites. He gave him a list of the different kinds of work that each group must do in the Lord's temple. He also gave him a list of the special things that were used to serve the Lord in the temple. 14He told Solomon the weight of gold and the weight of silver that he must use to make some of those special things.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 12The pattern … - literally, “the pattern of all that was with him in the spirit;” perhaps to be paraphrased, “the form of all that floated before his mind.” It seems to be David‘s spirit, not God‘s Spirit, that is here spoken of.Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 11-21Verses 11-21 The temple must be a sacred thing, and a type of Christ; it must be framed by Divine teaching. Christ is the true temple, the church is the gospel temple, and heaven the everlasting temple; all are framed according to the Divine counsels, and the plan laid in the Divine wisdom, ordained before the world, for God's glory and our good.
