Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 2. - He blessed the people in the name of the Lord; i.e. reverently in the Name of the Lord, and as vividly conscious of being in his presence, he pronounces blessings upon the people, and by short ejaculatory prayer and holy wish further begs for them those blessings which God only can give. In the time of David and Solomon (1 Kings 8:14) the king realized far more closely the idea of the paternal relation to the people than had ever been since the time of the patriarchs of the elder days.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) The burnt offerings.--Heb., the burnt offering, as if one great holocaust were meant. This verse is identical with 2Samuel 6:18, only omitting Sabaoth at the end, a Divine title which was perhaps obsolete in the chronicler's day.He blessed the people in the name of the Lord.--Comp. Numbers 6:22-27; 1Kings 8:14; 1Kings 8:55; Deuteronomy 33:1. . . .
