“That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains.”
the king said to the prophet Nathan, 'See now, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God stays in a tent' — David's observation initiates the dynastic covenant. David has built himself a magnificent cedar house, yet the Lord's ark remains in a temporary tent. David wishes to build a permanent temple, a house for God.
