1 Kings 8:64-65

64On the same day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard that was in front of the house of the Lord, because there he 1offered the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the fat of the peace offerings; for 2the bronze altar that was before the Lord was too small to hold the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the fat of the peace offerings.

65So 3Solomon held the 4feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great assembly 5from the entrance of Hamath 6to the brook of Egypt, before the Lord our God, for seven days and seven more days, that is, fourteen days.
