Trapp - “A shadow seems to be something, when indeed it is nothing; so is man’s life: and the longer this shadow seems to be, the nearer the sun is to setting.” And there is no hope - NET - "without security." ESV - "there is no abiding." What does David mean by "no hope." Clearly he does not mean he or any other believer has no hope, for hope is our surety, our assurance of eternal life. Every believer has a hope sure, radically distinct from the fallen world's hope so. So, in the context of shortness of life (like a shadow), David is saying no one lives forever on this earth without passing on, which is why he refers to them as sojourners. As a shadow does not continue to abide, neither do mortal men. Sojourner (stranger, alien) (01616) ger from gur = to live among people not one's blood relatives) is a masculine noun meaning sojourner, alien, stranger (1st use Ge 15:13). It describes someone who did not enjoy rights usually possessed by residents. It describes a person who does not belong to the nation of Israel by ancestry. In 1Ch 29:15 it describes Israelites as not belonging to this passing world. The Septuagint translates ger in 1Ch 29:15 with paroikos which means to dwell or reside near, live nearby, dwell beside and as living in a place without holding citizenship be an alien, live as a stranger, dwell temporarily F B

Trapp adds "After Adonijah’s death they all submitted themselves to Solomon the king. Hebrew, Gave the hand under Solomon the king; haply they laid their hand under his thigh – that ancient ceremony (Genesis 24:2, and 47:29), and swore to be faithful to him.” 1 Chronicles 29:25 The LORD highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed on him royal majesty which had not been on any king before him in Israel. BGT 1 Chronicles 29:25 καὶ ἐμεγάλυνεν κύριος τὸν Σαλωμων ἐπάνωθεν ἐναντίον παντὸς Ισραηλ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ δόξαν βασιλέως ὃ οὐκ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ παντὸς βασιλέως ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ LXE 1 Chronicles 29:25 And the Lord magnified Solomon over all Israel, and gave him royal glory, such as was not upon any king before him.

Trapp quips "he swam to the throne through a sea of sorrows; and so must all saints to the kingdom of heaven." G. Frederick Owen splendidly summarizes the essence of David’s life - David satisfied the people throughout Israel, he quieted the Philistines for all time to come, then in the midst of peace and plenty wrote many psalms of praise to Jehovah (ED: 75 of 150 psalms penned by David!). The elderly king gathered vast stores of stone and iron, brass, and cedar for the erection of the temple of God, gave his parting charge, and closed the most successful royal career recorded in the annals of history.
