2 Samuel 7:1 - 7:17

2 SamuelSteve Gregg
In this passage, Steve Gregg discusses the importance of the Davidic Covenant found in 2 Samuel 7:1-17. He notes that although the prophecy initially looks to David's son Solomon, who built the temple and sat on the throne, it ultimately finds its fulfillment in the Messiah, who will reign forever. Gregg emphasizes that the promises made to David have been fulfilled in Jesus, who is now reigning at the right hand of God. He also challenges the notion that God dwells in temples made by human hands, stating that the focus should be on the dynasty of David and the ongoing reign of the Messiah.
