2 Chronicles 3: Temple Construction Begins
Sunday, October 19, 2025 • 2 Chronicles 3 • Temple Construction Begins
Show Summary
Solomon begins construction of the temple on Mount Moriah. The details of the house, from the gold overlay to the cherubim, reveal God’s holiness and glory. The veil and the pillars Jachin and Boaz proclaim that God establishes and strengthens His people. All of this points to Christ, the true temple, who grants us access to the Father.
