5:1 This verse concludes the section on Temple furnishings, following 1 Kgs 7:51 almost verbatim. • the gifts his father, David, had dedicated: Just as the spoils taken from Egypt went into building the Tabernacle, the spoils of Israel’s enemies built the Temple. The prophets often portrayed the spoils of other nations as being at Israel’s disposal (see Isa 60:10-14; Zech 14:14).
