1 Kings 7 - 8

1 Kings
1 KingsSteve Gregg

In this section of "1 Kings 7-8," Steve Gregg details the building of Solomon's temple. The hall and court inside were made with beveled windows, and pillars shaped like lilies with no known functional purpose. The tabernacle laver is described as a large swimming pool, and ten carts were used to transport it. Solomon summoned the elders and leaders of Israel to bring the Ark of the Covenant to the Temple, which was filled with the glory of the Lord and consumed the offerings with fire.
