2 Chronicles 6:14

In the heaven nor in the earth. — Abridged from “in the heaven above, and upon the earth beneath” (Kings). Syriac, “Thou art the Lord that sittest in heaven above, and Thy will (pl.) is done on earth beneath;” apparently a curious reminiscence of the Lord’s Prayer. The Assyrians also spoke of their gods as “without an equal” (sânina la isû, “a rival he has not”).

Which keepest covenant and shewest mercy. — Literally, keeping the covenant and the mercy; i.e., the covenanted mercy. (Comp. Isaiah 55:3.)

With thy servant. — Heb., for; so in 2 Chronicles 6:16. (The verse is word for word as in Kings.)

And spakest with thy mouth.... — 2 Chronicles 6:4.
