multitude. What an imposing and joyful procession must that
have been! p. 68, Para. 2, [LOOKING].
They also brought up the tabernacle. The original tabernacle
was left at Gibeon thirty-eight years before; and it is
generally supposed that David had erected a new one for the
ark when he brought it to his city. Which of these was
brought into the temple? Some think both; but Dr. Clarke
suggests what seems the more probable view, that the original
tabernacle was brought up from Gibeon, to be preserved
in the temple as a relic, and the temporary one erected by
David was destroyed. p. 68, Para. 3, [LOOKING].
The ark was brought into its position in the most holy
place between the wings of the cherubim, and thus again became
connected with the sanctuary, after a separation of
one hundred and thirty-six years. God approved of all that
had been done suitably to prepare for his worship as
adapted to that time; and as he had taken possession of the
first tabernacle (Ex. 40:34), so now he takes possession of
this; "And it came to pass, when the priests were come out
of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the
Lord, so that the priests could not stand to minister because
of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord had filled
the house of the Lord." 1 Kings 8:10,11. p. 68, Para. 4,
[LOOKING].
That was a day of joy in Israel. The thousands of offerings
consuming upon the altars, the clouds of incense that
rose above the temple, the sounds of the instruments of music,
and the voices of the singers, the inimitable prayer
of Solomon, the wisest of men, the glory of the new temple,
the vast concourse of people, and above all, the crowning
visitation of the shekinah, or visible glory of God, as he
took possession of his dwelling, all conspired to render
this-- p. 69, Para. 1, [LOOKING].
THE MOST IMPOSING RELIGIOUS SERVICE EVER PERFORMED IN THIS
WORLD, EITHER BEFORE OR SINCE THAT TIME. (1) p. 69, Para.

Twenty-two thousand oxen and one hundred and twenty thousand
sheep constituted Solomon's peace-offering. Besides
this there were his meat-offerings, his burnt offerings,
and his drink-offerings, besides the offerings of the assembled
multitudes. Fourteen days the king and all Israel
kept a feast unto the Lord. p. 69, Para. 3, [LOOKING].
