6:41-42 Solomon’s prayer concludes with the quotation of a psalm (Ps 132:8-10). This prayer was the final part of transferring the Ark to its place in the Temple. Prayers with psalms had also accompanied David’s transfer of the Ark to Jerusalem (1 Chr 16:7-36); Solomon’s use of a psalm recalls the time when the Ark was first brought to its proper place. • God is called to arise, not to war (cp. Num 10:35) but to his resting place in the Temple.
