 As the Son of David, Jesus Christ was heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Israel.  King David was promised by God that his seed would build a temple to the Lord, and the throne of this son would be established forever.  David's son Solomon built a magnificent temple to the LORD, established his father's kingdom in peace, and had wisdom above all other men of the earth.  However, Solomon's temple was eventually toppled, and his kingdom destroyed - testifying that Solomon did not fulfill God's promise to David.
-Jesus built another temple to the LORD (his resurrected body), had wisdom greater than Solomon (he was able to discern the thoughts of people's hearts), and will establish the kingdom of his Father when he returns to earth again in complete fulfillment of God's promise to David that "I will be his father, and he shall be my son."
+Jesus built another temple to the LORD (his resurrected body), was wiser than Solomon, and brought the kingdom of his Father to earth. "
