Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I have set there a place for the ark,.... The most holy place:
wherein is the covenant of the Lord; the two tables of stone, on which were the covenant of the Lord, as the Targum:
which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt; as in 1 Kings 8:9.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 8:21. Wherein is the covenant of the Lord — As it is said, 1 Kings 8:9, that there was nothing in the ark but the two tables of stone, consequently these are called the Covenant, i.e., a sign of the covenant; as our Lord calls the cup the new covenant in his blood, that is, the sign of the new covenant: for This is my body implies, This is the sign or emblem of my body.
