Commentaries on 2 Chronicles 5:5

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 5The Tent of Meeting: The "Tent of Meeting" is a special tent mentioned in Exodus. It refers to the tabernacle's role (for example, Exodus 33:7). The tabernacle was where God's presence dwelled (for example, Exodus 25:8–9) and where God met with his people through the priests. After the temple was built, the tent was no longer needed.Read the comment
