7 Jeremiah got angry with them when he discovered what they had tried to do, and he said:“No one can know about the cave until the Lord God has pity on us again and brings our people back home.
8 At that time, he will show where these things are hidden. A cloud will appear, blazing with God's own dazzling light, just as it did when he came to Moses. This is also how the Lord came to King Solomon, when Solomon asked him to make the holy temple glorious and acceptable as a place for worship.”
9 We also know that Solomon was wise and built our temple, then offered a sacrifice to make it completely acceptable.
10 When Solomon prayed, some fire came down from heaven and burned up his sacrifices. This is the same thing that happened when Moses prayed,
11 “I am offering a sacrifice for sin. So it must be completely burned, and none of it eaten.”
12 Solomon's festival lasted for eight days.
13 You will find all this information in our record books as well as in the writings of Nehemiah, who built a library and filled it with the writings about prophets and kings. The books of King David and the letters that the kings wrote about offerings are also in his library.
