These were Israel's golden days, days of the Son of man in type. The Dedication of the Temple. 1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the L ORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

So the king and all the children of Israel dedicated the house of the Lord--The dedication was not a ceremony ordained by the law, but it was done in accordance with the sentiments of reverence naturally associated with edifices appropriated to divine worship. [See on 2Ch 7:5.]
