First Chronicles 17 preserves a direct parallel of David’s desire to build a house for YHWH and God’s promise instead to build David a dynastic house. The parallel confirms the centrality of the Davidic covenant across the historical books and preserves the temple/dynasty wordplay.

Hebrews 1 applies the royal Father–Son promise to Christ, using wording preserved in both 2 Samuel 7:14 and 1 Chronicles 17:13. The Christological interpretation is explicit and certain, while the immediate textual source cannot be isolated uniquely because the two Old Testament parallels are so close.

First Chronicles 17 promises David an enduring son, throne, and kingdom, with Solomon as the immediate temple-building heir; Luke 1 announces Jesus as the Son of David who receives David’s throne and reigns forever. The Gospel therefore carries the Davidic promise to its climactic royal horizon without erasing Solomon’s historical fulfillment.

The Davidic house-and-kingdom promise preserved in 1 Chronicles 17 reaches a clear canonical culmination when Jesus identifies himself as the root and offspring of David in Revelation 22:16.
