23Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.

Commentary

These verses bring king Solomon to his throne and king David to his grave. Thus the rising generation thrusts out that which went before, and says, "Make room for us." Every one has his day. I. Here is Solomon rising (Ch1 29:23): Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord.
