2 Chronicles 2:17
9/30/2026
Solomon took a census of all the aliens who were in Israel, after the census his father David had taken, and they were found to be 153,600.
Thousands of workers were needed to prepare material for the magnificent Temple that Solomon was planning to build. Wood must be cut and turned into lumber and transported to the site. Expert stonecutters needed many hands to get the stone from the quarry, cut it exactly to specifications and carry it from the quarry to Jerusalem. The workforce was drawn from people living in Israel who were not citizens, so Solomon had a census taken to determine who would be conscripted for this task. Sometimes I feel like I am not a citizen of the country in which I live, but am enrolled on a list of conscripts, sent to gather materials for a glorious temple being assembled by Jesus.
