Not only the temple, but the court, shall be hallowed. Lord, I would desire grace that everything may be sweetly sanctified by Jesus, and in Jesus. When I am most happy in ordinary things, let my soul be very jealous over its affections, that I may be sure my happiness is still in Jesus, and flowing from Jesus. The promise is, men shall be blessed in him. And how shall I look for anything to be blessed out of Jesus? They who would seek any one comfort without Jesus, it is to be feared their joys upon other occasions are not in Jesus. Reader! mark this thought, and see whether it suits your estimate and standard of real happiness. The return of the people to their habitations after so rich a festival, may serve to teach us with what spiritual joy God&#8217;s people should return from the house, or the table of Jesus, after the enjoyment of a feast indeed of fat things, of marrow, and of wine on the lees well refined. Oh! thou dear Redeemer! what a feast dost thou hold! and what holy joy ought the living upon thy body and blood to impart to thy hidden ones!<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Hawker&#8217;s Poor Man&#8217;s Commentary (Old and New Testaments)<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> 2Ch 7:7 Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.<\/p>\n<p> Ver. 7. <strong> Moreover, Solomon hallowed.<\/strong> ] See on <span class='bible'>1Ki 8:64<\/span> .<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: John Trapp&#8217;s Complete Commentary (Old and New Testaments)<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>hallowed.
