[1] {the house of the Lord}
The typology of the temple, if indeed it has any typical significance, is
most obscure and difficult. The N.T. invariably expounds the typology of
the tabernacle, not of the temple. The symbolism of the latter may be
revealed in the kingdom-age (see "Kingdom" [O.T.],
» See Note "Ge 1:26"
» See Note "Zech 12.8";
[N.T.],
# Lu 1:32 1Co 15:28
In the N.T. the usual Gk. word for \\sanctuary\\ (naos) is used
(1) of the temple in Jerusalem
# Mt 23:16
(2) of the believer's body
# 1Co 3:16,17 6:19
(3) of the local church
# 2Co 6:16
and (4) of the true church
# Eph 2:21
But in all these instances the thought is simply of
\\a habitation of God.\\ No reference to the structure of the
temple, as in the case of the tabernacle
# Heb 9:1-10:39

[2] {windows of narrow lights}
Cf.
# 2Ch 4:20
In the holy of holies in the tabernacle no light but the
shekinah glory was provided. In many ways Solomon's temple manifests
the spiritual deterioration of the people, and Jehovah's condescension
to it in grace.
