What Does 1 Kings 7:4 Mean?
The builders set windows in three tiers along the hall, aligned so that each opening faced another across the space. Light entered and answered light, filling the great cedar chamber.
There is a gentle picture here of light calling to light. A house may be built of the costliest timber, but without windows it remains dark within. So the soul, however richly furnished, needs openings toward the light. "God is light, and in him is no darkness at all," and those who walk toward Him find every chamber within them brightened.
