The Davidic Covenant | 2 Samuel 7 | Brent Smith

In 2 Samuel 7, King David expresses his desire to build a permanent temple for God, noting that the Ark of the Covenant is housed in a tent. God redirects David, promising instead to build a “house” for David. This covenant promises that David’s descendants will rule, his son will build the temple, and his throne will be established eternally—a prophecy ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
