What Does 2 Chronicles 3:15 Mean?
At the front of the house Solomon erects two free-standing pillars of great height, each crowned with an ornamented capital. They flank the entrance like sentinels, the first sight to greet anyone approaching the temple.
Pillars speak of strength and permanence, of something fixed that will not be moved. Set at the threshold, they declare that the house of God rests on firm foundations. Scripture later promises that the faithful will be made pillars in God's temple, never to go out again, joined forever to His unshakable house.
