Contextual Overview

¹ King Solomon called for the elders of Israel, the heads of the tribes, and the leaders of the families to come to him in Jerusalem. He wanted them to bring the Ark of the Agreement with the Lord from the older part of the city. ² So all the Israelites came together with King Solomon during the festival in the month of Ethanim, the seventh month. ³ When all the elders of Israel arrived, the priests lifted up the Ark. ⁴ They carried the Ark of the Lord , the Meeting Tent, and the holy utensils; the priests and the Levites brought them up. ⁵ King Solomon and all the Israelites gathered before the Ark and sacrificed so many sheep and cattle no one could count them all. ⁶ Then the priests put the Ark of the Agreement with the Lord in its place inside the Most Holy Place in the Temple, under the wings of the golden creatures. ⁷ The wings of these creatures were spread out over the place for the Ark, covering it and its carrying poles. ⁸ The carrying poles were so long that anyone standing in the Holy Place in front of the Most Holy Place could see the ends of the poles, but no one could see them from outside the Holy Place. The poles are still there today. ⁹ The only things inside the Ark were two stone tablets that Moses had put in the Ark at Mount Sinai. That was where the Lord made his agreement with the Israelites after they came out of Egypt. ¹⁰ When the priests left the Holy Place, a cloud filled the Temple of the Lord .

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled together,.... On this solemn occasion:

were with him before the ark; while it was in the court of the priests, before it was carried into the most holy place:

sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude; the phrase seems to be hyperbolical, and designed to denote a great number.
