Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
The first promise to "dwell among" the Israelites had been made to Moses Exo 25:8; Exo 29:45, but had not been repeated to David. The next promise, "I will not forsake, etc.," if not absolutely new, seems to have been more positive and general than previous similar promises Deu 31:6, Deu 31:8; Jos 1:5. God will not at any time or under any circumstances wholly forsake Israel.
