Verse 14 is found in chapter 7 of 2 Samuel. The promise reaches David’s descendants: God will raise up a son after him and establish his kingdom. The relationship between father, son, throne, and discipline introduces a dynastic dimension that extends into the later history of the kings of Judah. The promise of the permanence of David’s throne becomes one of the fundamental theological themes of Scripture. The text combines election, discipline, and divine faithfulness within the covenant with David’s house.
