And David assembled all the rulers of Israel, the rulers of the judges, the rulers of the courses that attended the king’s person, the rulers of the thousands and hundreds, the treasurers, those over his possessions, the mighty men, and the warriors of the army, in Jerusalem.
The breadth of the gathering gives the scene public, constitutional weight: David’s charge to Solomon is made before the whole ordered body of the kingdom.
