## Chapter 8

Introduction Chapters 1 to 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapters 10 to 12 Chapters 13 to 16 Chapters 17 to 18 Chapters 19 and 20 Chapter 21 Chapter 22 Chapter 23 Chapter 24 Chapter 25 Chapter 26 Chapter 27 Chapter 28 Chapters 29 and 30 Chapter 31 Chapter 32 Chapter 33 Chapters 34 and 35 Chapter 36 | #### Solomon's rule prefiguring that of Christ on earth Chapter 8 gives us a few more details of the state of Israel -- a state which prefigures that of the last days. Solomon brings everything into subjection that could have hindered the full enjoyment of the promised land in its whole extent, whether on the side of Tyre or of Syria. The strangers in the land continue to pay tribute, and the children of Israel are captains and men of war. Zion is entirely sanctified, and the worship of Jehovah maintained and honoured by the king. The service of the house of God, the praises, and the whole order connected therewith, were appointed according to the ordinances of David. The king's commandment was the absolute rule for everything. Edom itself was his possession; and, as far as the Red Sea, all were the king's subjects. The king of Tyre, who represents the Gentile glory of the world, supplied all that he needed to accomplish his designs. |
