David passes the torch

In the 28th and 29th chapters of 1 Chronicles, the two final chapters, David told all of the leaders of Israel God's plan for His Temple.  David had planned the building of the Temple and secured the elements to build it, but the actual construction would be up to his son Solomon.

He then strongly urged everyone to follow the Lord's commands so that Israel could be passed on down to their ancestors forever--a permanent inheritance, he called it.  He also gave these instructions to Solomon personally.

The next day there was a grand feast and sacrifice, honoring the Lord.  Solomon was also crowned as the new king.
