Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 12. - See 1 Kings 3:5; 1 Kings 9:2; Deuteronomy 12:2, 3, 5-7, 11, 14; and, by turning to the last of these sets of references, the emphasis laid here upon the house as the house of sacrifice will be amply accounted for without supposing a rather premature aside as regards synagogues. Meantime, what a feature, manifestly, the sacrifices were!

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) By night.--This is implied in Kings, which has, "as He had appeared unto him in Gibeon."I have heard thy prayer.--From this point begins the chronicler's addition to the prayer as extant in the older text. Judging by the style, the added section must have formed an integral part of the original text, from which both the editor of Kings and the chronicler drew their narratives.An house of sacrifice (beth z?bah).--A phrase occurring nowhere else in the Old Testament.
