This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
“According to all these words ... did Nathan speak unto David,” i.e., he related the whole to David, just as God had addressed it to him in the night. The clause in apposition, “according to all this vision,” merely introduces a more minute definition of the peculiar form of the revelation. God spoke to Nathan in a vision which he had in the night, i.e., not in a dream, but in a waking condition, and during the night; for חִזָּיֹון = חָזֹון is constantly distinguished from חֲלֹום, a revelation in a dream.
