This reflects his deep commitment to God and the importance of the temple as a central place of worship. David's preparation is a model of stewardship and devotion, emphasizing the importance of using one's resources and abilities for God's purposes. This phrase also highlights the concept of giving one's best to God, a theme echoed in the New Testament in passages like <a href="/colossians/3-23.htm">Colossians 3:23</a>.<p><b>gold for the gold articles, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron, and wood for the wood,</b><br>David meticulously gathers materials according to their specific uses in the temple, demonstrating wisdom and orderliness. Gold, silver, bronze, iron, and wood were common materials used in ancient Near Eastern construction, especially in significant buildings. The use of these materials signifies the temple's grandeur and the reverence due to God. The specificity of materials also reflects the detailed instructions given for the tabernacle in Exodus, showing continuity in worship practices.<p><b>as well as onyx for the settings, turquoise, stones of various colors, all kinds of precious stones, and slabs of marble&#8212;all in abundance.</b><br>The inclusion of precious stones and marble indicates the temple's beauty and splendor, befitting a dwelling place for God. Onyx and other stones were used in the high priest's garments (<a href="/exodus/28-9.htm">Exodus 28:9-20</a>), symbolizing purity and divine presence. The abundance of these materials underscores the generosity and willingness of David and the people to honor God. This abundance can be seen as a foreshadowing of the heavenly Jerusalem described in <a href="/revelation/21.htm">Revelation 21</a>, where precious stones and materials are used to describe the city's glory.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/david.htm">David</a></b><br>The King of Israel who is speaking in this verse.

From this seaweed an alkaline pigment was prepared, which came to be called by the same word. This Hebrew word also meant a "dye" made from <span class="accented">stribium</span>, the Latin name of <span class="accented">antimony</span> (Septuagint, <span class="greek">&#x3c3;&#x3c4;&#x3b9;&#x3bc;&#x3bc;&#x1f77;</span>: Vulgate, <span class="accented">stibium</span>), with which Hebrew women stained their eyelashes (see also <a href="/2_kings/9-30.htm">2 Kings 9:30</a>; <a href="/isaiah/54-11.htm">Isaiah 54:11</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/4-30.htm">Jeremiah 4:30</a>). Gesenius would translate here "stones of pigment," and understands them to mean possibly marble for covering, as though with a solid paint, the walls. . . . <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/1_chronicles/29-2.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Now with all</span><br /><span class="heb">&#1493;&#1468;&#1469;&#1499;&#1456;&#1499;&#1464;&#1500;&#1470;</span> <span class="translit">(&#363;&#183;&#7733;&#601;&#183;&#7733;&#257;l-)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw, Preposition-k &#124;
