1Ki 8:10-11 | MHM | STEP | v. 10–11 : After the priests finished their work, God showed that He accepted the temple by filling it with His glory in the form of a cloud (1 Kings 8:10–11 ). The priests could not stay in the temple because the cloud was so thick. This sign was like when God’s glory filled the tabernacle in the time of Moses, and it reminded the people that God was with them. The cloud also showed that God’s glory was partly hidden, since people could not yet see Him clearly as they would in heaven.
