Solomon Is Born and Loved by the LORD
David comforts Bathsheba, and she bears Solomon. The LORD loves the child and sends the name Jedidiah through Nathan, signaling that covenant mercy continues after judgment.
First Chronicles explicitly identifies Solomon as the son who will enjoy rest, build the temple, and stand in a Father–son relationship with God, clarifying the immediate historical horizon of the Davidic covenant without exhausting the promise’s later messianic development.
