1 Kings 8:5New Century VersionKing Solomon and all the Israelites gathered before the Ark and sacrificed so many sheep and cattle no one could count them all. See the chapter |
And he started a new festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, just like the festival in Judah. During that time the king offered sacrifices on the altar, along with sacrifices to the calves in Bethel he had made. He also chose priests in Bethel to serve at the places of worship he had made.
