2 Chronicles 3-4

not much solid to take today.  Lots of tactical plans and dimensions in these chapters.

The gold nails weighed fifty shekels.[f] He also overlaid the upper parts with gold.

That one caught my attention.  I can't imagine trying to hammer a gold nail.  That would be pretty soft.  But, that's real attention to detail.

6 "He then made ten"........of several things

It always amazes me how "numerical" much of the bible is.  I'm not a numerologist, but there are obvious relationships between how things are grouped.  Whether its the number of days, the number of bulls in the temple, or whatever.  I find it interesting.

  1. I was on vacation late last week and playing catch up on sleep this week--so I'm behind but will get up with you. I'm with you its hard to have much of a take out of these two chapters. It does feel like some other chapters we have read in the past with lots of dimensions and specifications. I guess if nothing else it really allows us to build a picture of the splendor this temple was to see.
