1 Kings 8:8-9

8:8 The poles were so long their ends were visible from the holy place in front of the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen from beyond that point. ¹  They have remained there to this very day. 8:9 There was nothing in the ark except the two stone tablets Moses had placed there in Horeb. ²  It was there that ³  the Lord made an agreement with the Israelites after he brought them out of the land of Egypt.
