2 Chronicles 3:14 - Exposition

The veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen (so Exodus 26:31 , Exodus 26:33 , Exodus 26:35 ; Exodus 36:35 ; Exodus 40:3 , Exodus 40:21 ). It is remarkable that our parallel ( 1 Kings 6:1-38 .) does not make mention of the veil, though a feature of which so much was always made. On the other hand, it is remarkable that our present passage does not make mention of the folding "doors of olive tree," which, with "the veil," intercepted the approach to the oracle ( 1 Kings 6:31 , 1 Kings 6:32 ), nor of the partition walls ( 1 Kings 6:16 ) in which they were situate, nor of the "partition chains [ 1 Kings 6:21 ] of gold before the oracle."
