22:2 And David commanded to gather together the {b} strangers that [were] in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
(b) Meaning, cunning men of other nations who dwelt among the Jews.
22:1-5 On occasion of the terrible judgment inflicted on Israel for the sin of David, God pointed out the place where he would have the temple built; upon which, David was excited to make preparations for the great work. David must not build, but he would do all he could; he prepared abundantly before his death. What our hands find to do for God, and our souls, and those round us, let us do it with all our might, before our death; for after death there is no device nor working. And when the Lord refuses to employ us in those services which we desired, we must not be discouraged or idle, but do what we can, though in a humbler sphere.
