Wesley's Notes for 1 Chronicles 29:23

29:22 The second time - The first time, was when he was made kingduring Adonijah's conspiracy. And Zadok - It must be remembered thatthe high - priest had his viceregent who might officiate in his stead.So that this action of theirs, the anointing Zadok, did not, actuallyconstitute him high - priest, but only settled the reversion of it uponhim and his line after Abiathar's death; even as David's makingSolomon king, and their anointing Solomon to be the chief governorhere, did not put him into actual possession of the kingdom, butonly gave him a right to it after the present king's death: hence,notwithstanding this anointing, Abiathar continued to exercise hisoffice 'till Solomon thrust him out, #1Kings 2:27|.

29:24 Of the Lord - On the throne of Israel, which is called thethrone of the Lord, because the Lord himself was in a peculiar mannerthe king and governor of Israel. He had the founding, he had thefilling of their throne, by immediate direction.
