1 Kings 8:8
_ _ they drew out the staves — a little way, so as to project (see on Exodus 25:15; see on Numbers 4:6); and they were left in that position. The object was, that these projecting staves might serve as a guide to the high priest, in conducting him to that place where, once a year, he went to officiate before the ark; otherwise he might miss his way in the dark, the ark being wholly overshadowed by the wings of the cherubim. |
1 Kings 8:8
Drew out — Not wholly, which was expressly forbidden, Exodus 25:15, Numbers 4:6, but in part. Seen out — In the most holy place, which is oft called by way of eminency, the holy place, and the Hebrew words rendered before the oracle, may be as well rendered, within the oracle. And these staves were left in this posture, that the high — priest might hereby be certainly guided to that very place where he, was one day in a year to sprinkle blood, and to offer incense before the ark, which otherwise he might mistake in that dark place, where the ark was wholly covered with the wings of the great cherubim, which stood between him and the ark when he entered in. |
1 Kings 8:8
