1 Kings 5-7; 2 Chronicles 2-4 / June 10 & 11 (Day 162 & 163)

Solomon said in 2 Chronicles 2:5, “the temple which I build will be great, for our God is greater than all gods.” The excellence and glory of this Temple would be difficult to tell. The Queen of Sheba had difficulty believing the wisdom of and prosperity that she heard about, but had to admit when she saw it, “indeed the half was not told me” (1 Kings 10:7). Can you imagine walls 45 feet high covered in gold; what an amazing sight! I am look forward to doing some more research on what this temple looked like and what it entailed.
