What Does 2 Chronicles 4:22 Mean?
The list closes with the final golden utensils and then the doors themselves -- both the inner doors to the most holy place and the doors of the temple -- all overlaid with gold. The account of the furnishings ends at the very thresholds of worship.
From the smallest snuffer to the gates of the sanctuary, all was gold, for all belonged to God. The golden doors guarded the way into his presence, a way then opened only with reverence and sacrifice. They wait for the One through whom that door would at last be opened wide.
