SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:14

Y volviendo el rey su rostro, bendijo a toda la congregación de Israel; y toda la congregación de Israel estaba en pie.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 8:14

Verse 14.
Blessed all the congregation] Though this blessing is not particularly stated, yet we may suppose that it was such as the high priest pronounced upon the people: "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee! The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee! The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace!" (see Num. vi. 24-26) for Solomon seems now to be acting the part of the high priest.

But he may have in view more particularly the conduct of Moses, who, when he had seen that the people had done all the work of the tabernacle, as the Lord had commanded them, he blessed them, Exod. xxxix. 43; and the conduct of his father David, who, when the ark had been brought into the city of David, and the burnt-offerings and peace-offerings completed, blessed the people in the name of the Lord, 2 Sam. vi. 18.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 14. And the king turned his face about , etc.] He was before the altar, ( 1 Kings 8:22), with his face to that first, and looking towards the holy and the most holy place, filled with the cloud and glory; and now he turned himself and stood with the altar behind him, and looking to the court of the people: and blessed all the congregation of Israel ; either blessed the Lord before them, or prayed for blessings for them, or congratulated them upon the Lord’s taking up his residence in the temple, which was so great an honour and favour to them: and all the congregation of Israel stood : ready to receive the king’s blessing, and in honour of him, and reverence to the divine Being. The Jews say, none might sit in the court but the kings of the house of David.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-21 -
Solomon encouraged the priests, who were much astonished at the dar cloud. The dark dispensations of Providence should quicken us in fleeing for refuge to the hope of the gospel. Nothing can mor reconcile us to them, than to consider what God has said, and to compare his word and works together. Whatever good we do, we must loo on it as the performance of God's promise to us, not of our promises to him.
