1 Kings 8:65-66
Contemporary English Version
65 Solomon and the huge crowd celebrated the Festival of Shelters at the temple for seven days.[a] There were people from as far away as the Egyptian Gorge in the south and Lebo-Hamath in the north. 66 Then on the eighth day, he sent everyone home. They said goodbye and left, very happy, because of all the good things the Lord had done for his servant David and his people Israel.
