Today I read 1 Kings 6 where the details of the temple of Solomon are laid out. Now this I can completely understand going over the measurements in great detail. Temples are the most important buildings in the world and need to be built just right by those who are authorized to do so. Not only that, but Solomon's temple is extremely important to the Jews, the House of Israel, and will need to be rebuilt one day as I understand it. These details will be the key to making sure that happens.
Temples are the pinnacle of any civilization. When God asks a civilization to build Him a temple, that means they are ready for the saving ordinances, the highest ordinances, and to act as Saviors on Mount Zion. Anyone who has ever been to a temple before knows the peace that comes with helping those who cannot help themselves. It is a feeling beyond compare and one that I wish could be shared with the entire world. Maybe someday they will be given the opportunity to know what that feels like. Until tomorrow.
