1 Chronicles 28 – 29
This account of David declaring that Solomon was to be his successor is very complete. It only fails to mention that David had an older son who was trying to assert his claim even while David was alive. David had to make a big show of naming Solomon his heir because Solomon was too young to assert his own claim to rule.
I like the way that David tells all the leaders of Israel how he has charged Solomon to build the temple.
