1 Kings 7:6• 6And he made a porch of pillars; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth thereof thirty cubits: and the porch was before them: and the other pillars and the thick beam were before them. (1 Kings 7:6)
• {v.6-7} The center itself was composed of two porches, first the porch of pillars, well named for its six lateral rows of pillars and the four rows of pillars rising in the middle of the porch. Next the porch of the throne or the porch of judgment, a continuation of the first and occupying the back of the building. At the back of this porch a marvelous throne arose. (“Solomon?s Houses: 1 Kings 7:1-12” by H.L. Rossier)
• This house where pillars were found everywhere was in contrast to the temple where there were none, except for Jachin and Boaz at the entrance of the house, as we shall see later on; at least there is no pillar mentioned, neither in the holy place nor in the oracle. The house of God supports itself, and has no need of other support in its perfect stability. The glory of God suffices for itself, only God the Father associates His children with it and gives them a dwelling place there. It will not be so with the reign of Christ over the nations. The saints will be called to share in His reign and to judge the world with Christ (1 Cor. 6:2; Psa. 2:9; Rev. 2:26-27). The Lord will have companions in His government. (“Solomon?s Houses: 1 Kings 7:1-12” by H.L. Rossier)
