2 SAMUEL 7:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
2 Sam 7:122 Sam 7:14
He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
'I will be his father, and he shall be my son. When he commits iniquity, I will punish him with the rod such as mortals use, with blows inflicted by human beings' — The Lord adopts the heir as son, mirroring the Psalm 2 language of divine sonship. Yet the relationship allows for discipline: the son's iniquity brings punishment. The covenant includes accountability.
