1 CHRONICLES 17:1 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord remaineth under curtains.”
When David was settled in his house, David said to the prophet Nathan — David's peace in his house prompts reflection on ark's temporary tent. Hebrew 'shakan' (settled/dwelt) indicates stable residence; David's security enables prophetic consultation. Nathan's appearance marks divine word transmission; prophecy central to kingship's legitimacy.
