1 Chronicles 21:9

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

1 Chronicles 21:9. Behold a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest.

That is a very sweet name for Solomon, "A man of rest." I pray that many a believer here may be a man of that kind. Some believers have to be men of war. There they are, in a world of struggles, disputes, contentions, of their own ambitions - but happy is that man who is of a gentle and a tender spirit, a spirit of holy wisdom, and whom God gives the great privilege to be a man of peace.
