Bronze, a durable and valuable metal, was often used in the tabernacle and temple for items associated with worship and sacrifice, symbolizing strength and endurance. This platform was specifically crafted for Solomon's prayer of dedication, highlighting the solemnity and significance of the event.<p><b>five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high</b><br>The dimensions of the platform (approximately 7.5 feet long and wide, and 4.5 feet high) suggest a structure that was both prominent and accessible. The use of specific measurements reflects the biblical emphasis on order and precision, reminiscent of the detailed instructions given for the construction of the tabernacle and temple. The number five often symbolizes grace in biblical numerology, which may underscore the grace of God being sought in Solomon's prayer.<p><b>and had placed it in the middle of the courtyard</b><br>Positioning the platform in the middle of the courtyard ensured that Solomon was visible to the entire assembly of Israel. This central location emphasizes the communal aspect of the dedication, as the temple was to be a place of worship for all the people. The courtyard was a significant area in the temple complex, where the congregation gathered, symbolizing unity and collective worship.<p><b>He stood on it</b><br>Solomon standing on the platform indicates his role as both king and spiritual leader. His position on the platform signifies authority and leadership, as he represents the people before God. This act also reflects the biblical tradition of leaders standing to address the assembly, as seen with Moses and other prophets.<p><b>knelt down before the whole assembly of Israel</b><br>Kneeling is a posture of humility and submission, especially significant for a king. By kneeling, Solomon demonstrates reverence for God and acknowledges his dependence on divine guidance. This act of humility before the entire assembly sets an example for the people, emphasizing that even the king is subject to God's authority.<p><b>spread out his hands toward heaven</b><br>Spreading out hands in prayer is a gesture of openness and supplication, symbolizing a plea for divine intervention and blessing. This posture is common in biblical prayers, indicating a desire to receive from God. It reflects a connection between heaven and earth, as Solomon seeks God's presence and favor upon the newly built temple. This act can also be seen as a type of Christ, who intercedes on behalf of humanity, bridging the gap between God and man.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/s/solomon.htm">Solomon</a></b><br>The son of King David and Bathsheba, Solomon was the third king of Israel, known for his wisdom, wealth, and building projects, including the Temple in Jerusalem.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/b/bronze_platform.htm">Bronze Platform</a></b><br>A specially constructed platform used by Solomon during the dedication of the Temple.
