Context of 1 Chronicles 29:30

28He was an old man when he died. During his long life, God gave him riches as well as honour. Then David's son Solomon became king instead of him. 29The prophets Samuel, Nathan and Gad wrote history books about all the things that King David did. They wrote down everything that he did as king, from the beginning to the end. The books tell us how he ruled with great power. They tell us about the things that happened to him. They also tell us about the things that happened in Israel and in the other kingdoms in that region.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 26-30Verses 26-30 When we read the second book of Samuel, we could scarcely have expected to behold David appear so illustrious in his closing scene.
