1 Kgs 11:351 Kgs 11:37
And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.
"And to his son I will give one tribe, that David my servant may always have a lamp before me in Jerusalem, the city in which I have chosen to put my name." — The *lamp* (*ner*) represents *continuity*, *remembrance*, and *presence*. David's *dynasty* will persist as a *light* before God, and *Jerusalem* remains the *place of God's name* and the *seat of the southern kingdom*.
