1 Kings 8:9 in context

  1. 7For the cherubim spread their wings out over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.
  2. 8The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the holy place before the inner sanctuary; but they were not seen outside. They are there to this day.
  3. 9There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets which Moses put there at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
  4. 10It came to pass, when the priests had come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled Yahweh’s house,
  5. 11so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for Yahweh’s glory filled Yahweh’s house.
