After Solomon completes the temple and palace, the LORD appears to him a second time. God says He has heard Solomon’s prayer and consecrated the house, but warns that turning to other gods will bring removal from the land and make the temple an astonishment. The chapter then surveys Solomon’s dealings with Hiram, building projects, labor system, sacrifices, and maritime trade.
