| the cloud filled the house of the Lord--The cloud was the visible symbol of the divine presence, and its occupation of the sanctuary was a testimony of God's gracious acceptance of the temple as of the tabernacle (Exo 40:34). The dazzling brightness, or rather, perhaps, the dense portentous darkness of the cloud, struck the minds of the priests, as it formerly had done Moses, which such astonishment and terror (Lev 16:2-13; Deu 4:24; Exo 40:35) that they could not remain. Thus the temple became the place where the divine glory was revealed, and the king of Israel established his royal residence. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| The cloud - the visible symbol of the divine presence - the Shechinah of the Targums - which halt been promised before the ark was begun Exo 29:43, and had filled the tabernacle as soon as it was completed Exo 40:34, and which had probably been seen from time to time during the long interval when we have no express mention of it, now once more appeared in full magnificence, and took, as it were, possession of the building which Solomon was dedicating. The presence of God in the temple henceforth was thus assured to the Jews, and His approval of all that Solomon had done was signified. |

35 And Moses [04872] was not able [03201] to enter [0935] into the tent [0168] of the congregation [04150], because the cloud [06051] abode [07931] thereon, and the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] filled [04390] the tabernacle [04908].
24 For the LORD [03068] thy God [0430] is a consuming [0398] fire [0784], even a jealous [07067] God [0410].
2 And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto Moses [04872], Speak [01696] unto Aaron [0175] thy brother [0251], that he come [0935] not at all times [06256] into the holy [06944] place within [01004] the vail [06532] before [06440] the mercy seat [03727], which is upon the ark [0727]; that he die [04191] not: for I will appear [07200] in the cloud [06051] upon the mercy [03727] seat.
3 Thus [02063] shall Aaron [0175] come [0935] into the holy [06944] place: with a young [01121] [01241] bullock [06499] for a sin offering [02403], and a ram [0352] for a burnt offering [05930].
4 He shall put on [03847] the holy [06944] linen [0906] coat [03801], and he shall have the linen [0906] breeches [04370] upon his flesh [01320], and shall be girded [02296] with a linen [0906] girdle [073], and with the linen [0906] mitre [04701] shall he be attired [06801]: these [01992] are holy [06944] garments [0899]; therefore shall he wash [07364] his flesh [01320] in water [04325], and so put them on [03847].
5 And he shall take [03947] of the congregation [05712] of the children [01121] of Israel [03478] two [08147] kids [08163] of the goats [05795] for a sin offering [02403], and one [0259] ram [0352] for a burnt offering [05930].
6 And Aaron [0175] shall offer [07126] his bullock [06499] of the sin offering [02403], which is for himself [01157], and make an atonement [03722] for himself, and for his house [01004].
7 And he shall take [03947] the two [08147] goats [08163], and present [05975] them before [06440] the LORD [03068] at the door [06607] of the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150].
8 And Aaron [0175] shall cast [05414] lots [01486] upon the two [08147] goats [08163]; one [0259] lot [01486] for the LORD [03068], and the other [0259] lot [01486] for the scapegoat [05799].
9 And Aaron [0175] shall bring [07126] the goat [08163] upon which the LORD'S [03068] lot [01486] fell [05927], and offer [06213] him for a sin offering [02403].
10 But the goat [08163], on which the lot [01486] fell [05927] to be the scapegoat [05799], shall be presented [05975] alive [02416] before [06440] the LORD [03068], to make an atonement [03722] with him, and to let him go [07971] for a scapegoat [05799] into the wilderness [04057].
11 And Aaron [0175] shall bring [07126] the bullock [06499] of the sin offering [02403], which is for himself, and shall make an atonement [03722] for himself, and for his house [01004], and shall kill [07819] the bullock [06499] of the sin offering [02403] which is for himself:
12 And he shall take [03947] a censer [04289] full [04393] of burning [0784] coals [01513] of fire [0784] from off the altar [04196] before [06440] the LORD [03068], and his hands [02651] full [04393] of sweet [05561] incense [07004] beaten small [01851], and bring [0935] it within [01004] the vail [06532]:
13 And he shall put [05414] the incense [07004] upon the fire [0784] before [06440] the LORD [03068], that the cloud [06051] of the incense [07004] may cover [03680] the mercy seat [03727] that is upon the testimony [05715], that he die [04191] not:
34 Then a cloud [06051] covered [03680] the tent [0168] of the congregation [04150], and the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] filled [04390] the tabernacle [04908].
34 Then a cloud [06051] covered [03680] the tent [0168] of the congregation [04150], and the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] filled [04390] the tabernacle [04908].
43 And there I will meet [03259] with the children [01121] of Israel [03478], and the tabernacle shall be sanctified [06942] by my glory [03519].
34 Then a cloud [06051] covered [03680] the tent [0168] of the congregation [04150], and the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] filled [04390] the tabernacle [04908].
11 So that the priests [03548] could [03201] not stand [05975] to minister [08334] because [06440] of the cloud [06051]: for the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] had filled [04390] the house [01004] of the LORD [03068].
10 And it came to pass, when the priests [03548] were come out [03318] of the holy [06944] place, that the cloud [06051] filled [04390] the house [01004] of the LORD [03068],
