The Ark is Placed in the Temple(A)

As soon as Solomon had completed the Lord’s Temple, he installed the holy items that had belonged to his father David, including the silver, gold, and all the other items in the treasure rooms of God’s Temple. Then Solomon called Israel’s elders together, including all the leaders of the tribes and families of Israel.

All the men of Israel assembled in front of the king during the Festival of Tents[a] that takes place in the seventh month[b] of the year.[c]
