I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. Amos 4:6

Trivia: In chapter 9, who did Amos see standing on the altar?

When the ark was brought into the Temple, what made it so that the priests couldn't carry out their duties?


A cloud (the glory of the Lord) filled the temple.

So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD. 1 Kings 8:10
When the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD, So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD. 1 Kings 8:10
