2 Chronicles 6:7

Solomon Blesses The People

⁶ nevertheless I have made choice of Jerusalem, that my Name might be there, - and I have made choice of David, that he might be over my people Israel. ⁷ And so it came to pass, that it was near the heart of David my father, - to build a house, to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel. ⁸ Then said Yahweh unto David my father, Because it was near thy heart to build a house for my Name, thou didst well that it was near thy heart:

Build a Temple

Building a Temple
