Now the LORD has fulfilled His word that He spoke This phrase emphasizes the faithfulness of God in keeping His promises. The Hebrew root for "fulfilled" is "מָלֵא" (male'), which conveys the idea of completion or bringing to fruition. This reflects the reliability of God's word, as seen throughout the Scriptures. Historically, this fulfillment is significant because it marks the realization of God's covenant with David, as recorded in 2 Samuel 7:12-13, where God promised David that his offspring would build a house for His Name.

Verses 10, 11. - The moment that might have witnessed the utmost inflation of spiritual pride, the acme of ambition, the highest point of even moral kind of grandeur, being touched, is saved from the peril. To the "performing of the Lord" the glory is all given (Luke 1:54, 55, 68-72). Probably delivered from earthly feeling, and sheltered just now from self and human ambition, Solomon was in a very high degree "in the spirit" (Revelation 1:10) on this great day. The moment was a proud moment in Solomon's history, as well there may be proud moments in men's lives, but it was divinely shielded, as divinely inspired. Hereafter, for all that, "the thorn in the flesh" might become very necessary, lest Solomon "be exalted above measure" in the memory of all that had transpired.Parallel Commentaries ...
