The Lord hath said that he would dwell - Solomon, seeing the cloud descend and fill the house, immediately took for granted that the Lord had accepted the place, and was now present. What occurred now was precisely the same with what took place when Moses reared the tabernacle in the wilderness; see Exo 40:34, Exo 40:35 : A cloud covered the tent - and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. And Moses was not able to enter into the tent - because the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. The Chaldee paraphrases thus: "Then said Solomon, It has pleased God to place his majesty in the city of Jerusalem, in the house of the sanctuary which I have built to the name of his Word, and he hath placed a dark cloud before him.

(2Ch. 6:1-41) The Lord hath said that he would dwell in the thick darkness--This introduction to Solomon's address was evidently suggested by the remarkable incident recorded at the close of the last chapter: the phenomenon of a densely opaque and uniformly shaped cloud, descending in a slow and majestic manner and filling the whole area of the temple. He regarded it himself, and directed the people also to regard it, as an undoubted sign and welcome pledge of the divine presence and acceptance of the building reared to His honor and worship. He referred not to any particular declaration of God, but to the cloud having been all along in the national history of Israel the recognized symbol of the divine presence (Exo 16:10; Exo 24:16; Exo 40:34; Num 9:15; Kg1 8:10-11).

Quelle öffnen ↗The words with which Solomon celebrates this wondrous evidence of the divine favour, entirely coincide with the narrative in Kg1 8:12-21, except that in Ch2 6:5. the actual words of Solomon's speech are more completely given than in Kg1 8:16, where the words, "and I have not chosen a man to be prince over my people Israel, and I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there," are omitted. For the commentary on this address, see on Kg1 8:12-21.
Quelle öffnen ↗It is of great consequence, in all our religious actions, that we design well, and that our eye be single. If Solomon had built this temple in the pride of his heart, as Ahasuerus made his feast, only to show the riches of his kingdom and the honour of his majesty, it would not have turned at all to his account. But here he declares upon what inducements he undertook it, and they are such as not only justify, but magnify, the undertaking. 1. He did it for the glory and honour of God; this was his highest and ultimate end in it. It was for the name of the Lord God of Israel (Ch2 6:10), to be a house of habitation for him, Ch2 6:2. He has indeed, as to us, made darkness his pavilion (Ch2 6:1), but let this house be the residence of that darkness; for it is in the upper world that he dwells in light, such as no eye can approach. 2. He did it in compliance with the choice God had been pleased to make of Jerusalem, to be the city in which he would record his name (Ch2 6:6): I have chosen Jerusalem. A great many stately buildings there were in Jerusalem for the king, his princes, and the royal family. If God chooses that place, it is fit that there be a building for him which may excel all the rest. If men were thus honoured there, let God be thus honoured. 3. He did it in pursuance of his father's good intentions, which he never had an opportunity to put into execution: "It was in the heart of David my father to build a house for God;" the project was his, be it known, to his honour (Ch2 6:7), and God approved of it, though he permitted him not to put it in execution (Ch2 6:8), Thou didst well that it was in thy heart. Temple-work is often thus done; one sows and another reaps (Joh 4:37, Joh 4:38), one age begins that which the next brings to perfection. And let not the wise…
Quelle öffnen ↗6:1-2 The dedication ceremony culminated in Solomon’s poetic proclamation that expressed the most basic concept of the Temple. God had chosen to dwell in the thick cloud of darkness. The dedication of the Temple affirmed God’s choice of Israel as his people and his continuous presence in their midst.

Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Sage deinem Bruder Aaron, daß er nicht zu allen Zeiten in das Heiligtum hineingehe hinter den Vorhang vor den Sühndeckel, der auf der Lade ist, damit er nicht sterbe; denn ich will auf dem Sühndeckel in einer Wolke erscheinen.
Wolken und Dunkel sind um ihn her, Gerechtigkeit und Recht sind seines Thrones Feste.

Und ihr tratet herzu und standet unten am Berg. Aber der Berg brannte im Feuer bis in den Himmel hinein, der voller Finsternis, Wolken und Dunkel war.
