Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen,which could not be told nor numbered for multitude. 2 Chron. 5:6
Behold, a greater than Solomon is here. Matthew 12:42b
Solomon offered sacrifices without number for the people of one nation. When God desired to secure redemption for a multitude out of every tribe and nation and tongue, from throughout all the ages of history, then He who was greater than Solomon sacrificed Himself.—Tom Steere
Join all the glorious names of wisdom, love, and power,
That mortals ever knew, that angels ever bore;
All are too mean to speak His worth,
Too mean to set the Saviour forth. —Isaac Watts
