They agreed to his motion, and went with him thither, see ( 1 Kings 3:4 )

for there was the tabernacle of the congregation of God, which Moses

2 Solomon addressed all Israel - the commanders and captains, the judges, every leader, and all the heads of families.
3 Then Solomon and the entire company went to the worship center at Gibeon - that's where the Tent of Meeting of God was, the one that Moses the servant of God had made in the wilderness.
4 The Chest of God, though, was in Jerusalem - David had brought it up from Kiriath Jearim, prepared a special place for it, and pitched a tent for it.
5 But the Bronze Altar that Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was in Gibeon, in its place before the Tabernacle of God; and that is where Solomon and the congregation gathered to pray.
