שמואל ב ז׳:ה׳-י״ז

באהל ובמשכן. משכן שילה לא היתה בו תקרה, אלא בית של אבנים מלמטן, ויריעות מלמעלן:

Within a tent and the Mishkan. The Mishkan of Shiloh had no roof, it had walls made of stone underneath and curtains on top [as its covering].

הדבר דברתי. לשון תמיה הוא, לכך הוא נקוד ה"א חטף פת"ח, והדל"ת רפי:

Have I said a word. This language [conveys] astonishment, that's why its punctuation has the Hei with a Kometz, and the Daled is soft [with a Dogesh].

מן הנוה. דיר הרועים, כמו (צפניה ב ו): נות כרות רועים:

From the corral. The corral [used by] sheperds as [can be found], "the dugout dwelling of sheperds." (Zfsaphania, 2:6).

כשם הגדולים. זהו שאומרים מגן דוד:

Like the name of great people. That is what is said [about Dovid] the shield of Dovid.⁷Pesachim 117b. The “great people” referred to here are Avrohom, Yitzhok and Yakov. Just as they are mentioned in the first blessing of the Amidah, so too Dovid’s name is used in the ending of one of the Haftorah’s concluding blessings. (Rashi, ibid).

ואכריתה את כל איביך. ולכך עלה על לבך לבנות הבית, כמה שכתוב בתורה:

I will destroy all your enemies. And that is why [the thought] came to your heart to build the House as it is written in the Torah.⁸Devarim 12:10. See Rashi on verse 1.

ושמתי מקום. עוד אני חפץ להשקיט, שיהא שקט ושליו את עמי בימי בנך:

I will make a place. I still want to quiet [things] that my people [should have] quiet and tranquility during the days of your son['s reign].

ולמן היום אשר צויתי. מחובר על העליון, ולא יוסיפו לענותו כאשר בראשונה קודם השופטים, וכאשר עשו מימי השופטים עד כאן:

And from that day that I commanded. It is connected to what preceded it, they will no longer afflict [the people] as before, i.e., before the [days of the] Judges. And as they [also] did from the days of the Judges until now.

והניחותי לך. יותר ויותר, עד שתנוח מכל אויביך:

I will give you respite. More and more until you have respite from all your enemies.

והגיד לך ה'. היום על ידי, כי בית יעשה לך להושיב בנך על כסאך, ויתקיים לך בית המלכות, והוא יבנה הבית:

Adonoy is telling you. Today, through me [Noson], that He will establish a monarchy for you to have your son [Shlomo] sit on your throne and he will secure the monarchy for you. And it is he [Shlomo] that will build the House

בשבט אנשים. זה הדד ורזון בן אלידע:

With the rod of men. This refers to Haddad and Rozon, the son of Elyodoh.⁹Both were enemies of Shlomo, they are mentioned in Kings I, 11:14 and 23 respectively.

ונגעי בני אדם. זה אשמדאי, שדחהו ממלכותו, והשדים בני אדם הראשון הם, שכל מאה ושלשים שנה שפירש אדם מאשתו במות הבל, היו הרוחות מתייחמות ויולדות הימנו (ילקוט שמעוני רמז קמו):

And with the afflictions of people. This refers to Ashmedoy who dethroned him.¹⁰Gittin 68b. The demons are the children of Odom Horishon¹¹See Yalkut Shimoni 146. The word אָדָם in the verse is taken as a reference to Odom Horishon. because the entire one hundred and thirty years that Odom [stayed] separated from his wife after Hevel's death,¹²Rashi in Bereishis 4:25 says that the Odom’s separation was due to the fact that he had brought death, to the world. The Yalkut Shimoni does not mention why the separation occurred. In addition the Yalkut Shimoni tells as that it was Chava who separated herself from Odom. the spirits would become heated [pregnant] and give birth from him.
