2 Maccabees 2:7 In-Context

5 When Jeremiah arrived, he discovered a cave where he deposited the meeting tent, the covenant chest, and the incense altar. He blocked up the opening.
6 Some who had accompanied him went along to mark the way but couldn't find it again.
7 When Jeremiah found out, he rebuked them and said: "The place will remain unknown until God gathers the people together again and shows mercy.
8 Then the Lord will disclose these things. The Lord's glory will appear with the cloud, as they were revealed in the time of Moses and when Solomon prayed that the place might be made holy."
9 It was also made clear that, since Solomon possessed wisdom, he offered up a sacrifice for the inauguration and completion of the temple.
