The completion of the palace of king Shlomo (Solomon) and the dedication of the temple on the first day of Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles) teaches us about the connection between the symbols of king and priest in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus).
Food for thought from the recorded discussion
What is baptism? How is the crossing of the Dead Sea similar to baptism? What is baptism by water? What is baptism by spirit? Did Yeshua have to be baptized for the forgiveness of His sin? Why was Yeshua baptized?
Who lifts the veil over our eyes as we study God’s word? What does the High Priest do? What does the Levite do? What is the Messiah doing? What will the Apostles do after the Resurrection?
What is the purpose of Scripture? Where will the law come from? Where will the word of the Lord come from?
1 Kings 8:1-9 — Did David establish the law? Did David write the law? What happened when Solomon brought the ark from the city of David to Jerusalem? What was in the ark at this time? What is the foundation of the Torah? When was the Temple and the King’s palace dedicated? What was Solomon’s prayer of dedication when he dedicated the Temple? What is the temple?
Numbers 7:1-5,12-84 — What items were brought by the the leaders of the tribes for use by the Levites? Why is the order of offerings different in this section than the other lists of the 12 Tribes? How many offerings per day? Which tribe did an offering on the seventh day? What about the Shabbat? Who dedicated the altar? Why did they dedicate the altar? What does this mean for our future?
Numbers 29:12 — How did Solomon break the law? Why would you spend 7 days at the feast doing no servile work? When you commit a sin and bring your offerings, at what point do you present the sin offering? What is the purpose of giving a bull as a whole offering? How did Moses show the glory of God?
