We examined the way in which the temple was constructed. It’s dimensions as well as the specifics of its construction. Details like the date the construction began. How long and wide and high it was. How it had windows and a vestibule in front. It records how Solomon built a storage structure 3 stories high around 3 sides of the temple. There is also details like how the stones used in the temple were cut in the quarry away from the temple mount so no hammer or any tool of iron would be heard on the temple mount while it was being built. The thing which really stands out in these opening verses is the detail of the record. God’s house was built with precision. Everything about it was very intentional. The intentionality of the construction of God’s dwelling really foreshadows the intentionality of the construction of God’s future temple which is made of the people of God and built on the great cornerstone of Jesus.
