1 Kings 8:7 in Context — 1 Kings 8
5 E o rei Salomão, e toda a congregação de Israel que a ele se havia juntado, estavam com ele diante da arca, sacrificando ovelhas e bois, que pela abundância não se podiam contar nem numerar.
6 E os sacerdotes puseram a arca do pacto do SENHOR em seu lugar, no oráculo da casa, no lugar santíssimo, debaixo das asas dos querubins.
7 Porque os querubins tinham estendidas as asas sobre o lugar da arca, e assim cobriam os querubins a arca e suas varas por encima.
8 E fizeram sair as varas, de maneira que as extremidades das varas podiam ser vistas desde o santuário diante do compartimento interno, mas não se viam desde fora: e assim ficaram até hoje.
9 Na arca nenhuma coisa havia mais das duas tábuas de pedra que havia ali posto Moisés em Horebe, de onde o SENHOR fez a aliança com os filhos de Israel, quando saíram da terra do Egito.
