Description

2 Samuel 7:1-29 explores the desires of God and humans as seen through the story of David and the building of the Temple. Despite David's desire to build a fixed Temple, God rejects this idea and instead creates a covenant with David's line of successors. The story highlights the importance of God's ever-moving intervention in the lives of his people and the dangers of centering worship on a fixed location. Ultimately, the passage emphasizes the importance of God's grace and love in the unfolding story of humanity's relationship with God, which is embodied in Jesus as the moving Tabernacle and his disciples as the spreading Temple of God's Holy Spirit.
