And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God:
But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.
Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.
He shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

22:8 shed much blood. The house of God must speak primarily of peace between man and God, so it was inappropriate that it be built by a man of war, even though David had merely been completing the conquest of the promised land—the conquest begun long before at God’s command by Joshua.


22:10 my son. This reference confirms God has a Son! This prophecy of the everlasting kingdom is fulfilled only in Christ. See Hebrews 1:5.
