Context of 1 Chronicles 29:29
27And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem. 28And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead. Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer; 30with all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.

Commentaries on 1 Chronicles 29:29
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 29The acts of David - first and last - Those which concerned him in private life, as well as those which grew out of his regal government.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 29On the character of the works alluded to, see Introduction to Chronicles. Gad the seer - Gad is not given here the same title as Samuel.

Gad‘s is a far commoner title; it is applied to his contemporaries Asaph 2 Chronicles 29:30, Heman 1 Chronicles 25:5, and Jeduthun 2 Chronicles 35:15, to Iddo 2 Chronicles 9:29; 2 Chronicles…Read the comment
- 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.

Blessed be God, even the chief of sinners may hope for a glorious departure, when brought to repent and flee for refuge to the Saviour's…Read the comment
