44 “The Holy Tent where God spoke to our fathers was with the Jews in the desert. God told Moses how to make this Tent. He made it like the plan God showed him.
45 Later, Joshua led our fathers to capture the lands of the other nations. Our people went in, and God drove the other people out. When our people went into this new land, they took with them this same Tent. They received this Tent from their fathers and kept it until the time of David.
46 God was very pleased with David. He asked God to let him build a house for him, the God of Jacob.
47 But Solomon was the one who built the Temple.
48 “But the Most High does not live in houses that men build with their hands. This is what the prophet says:
49 ‘Heaven is my throne.The earth is my footstool.So do you think you can build a house for me? says the Lord.There is no place where I need to rest.
50 Remember, I made all these things!’” Isaiah 66:1-2
