Today, Solomon finishes the work of building the temple and brings the ark of the covenant into the newly constructed room known as the holy of holies. The priests consecrate themselves and worship the Lord through music. The temple fills with a cloud and with the Lord’s glory to such a degree that the priests are not able to continue ministering. Solomon prays to the Lord before the nation of Israel, asking God to hear their prayers, reminding the people through his prayer that God resides in heaven, and is not confined to the walls of the temple. The Lord responds by reaffirming his commitment to David’s lineage so long as they are faithful to His statutes.
