7:6-8 The Hall of Pillars was apparently a colonnaded entry to the Hall of Justice, where Solomon sat to hear legal matters (see also 10:18-20). Similar throne rooms have been found in Syria and Mesopotamia. • Solomon erected separate living quarters for Pharaoh’s daughter (see 3:1; 9:24; 2 Chr 8:11).
