SOLOMON'S BLESSING. (Kg1 8:12-21) Then spake Solomon--For the reassurance of the priests and people, the king reminded them that the cloud, instead of being a sign ominous of evil, was a token of approval. The Lord said--not in express terms, but by a continuous course of action (Exo 13:21; Exo 24:16; Num 9:15).
