1 Re 8:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 8:6

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord
unto his place
Destined for it, the like to which it had in the tabernacle:

into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place;
that part of the house where the divine oracle was, the holy of holies; for though into it none but the high priest might enter, and he but once a year; yet in case of necessity, as for the repair of it, which the Jews F19 gather from hence, other priests might enter, as was the case now; an high priest could not carry in the ark himself, and therefore it was necessary to employ others; and besides, as yet the divine Majesty had not taken up his residence in it:

even under the wings of the cherubim;
the large ones which Solomon had made, ( 1 Kings 6:23 ) not those of Moses.

1 Re 8:6 In-Context

4 E trasportarono l’Arca del Signore, e il Tabernacolo della convenenza, e tutti i vasellamenti sacri ch’erano nel Tabernacolo. I Sacerdoti e i Leviti li trasportarono.
5 E il re Salomone, e tutta la raunanza d’Israele che si era adunata appresso di lui, camminavano con lui davanti all’Arca, sacrificando pecore e buoi, in tanto numero che non si potevano nè contare,
6 nè annoverare. Ed i sacerdoti portarono l’Arca del Patto del Signore dentro al suo luogo, nell’Oracolo della Casa, nel Luogo santissimo, sotto alle ale de’ Cherubini;
7 perciocchè i Cherubini spandevano le ale sopra il luogo dell’Arca, e coprivano l’Arca, e le sue stanghe, disopra.
8 E tirarono infuori le stanghe, per tutta la lor lunghezza; ed i capi di esse si vedevano dal Luogo santo, in su la parte anteriore dell’Oracolo, e non si videro più di fuori; anzi son restate quivi fino a questo giorno.
