Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - A thousand burnt offerings. The first instance of the burnt offering is Genesis 8:20, and thereafter in the same book Genesis 15:9, 17; Genesis 22:2, 7, 13. It was manifestly the chiefest of the eucharistic kind of sacrifices, and for manifest reasons also was preceded by a "sin" offering (Exodus 29:36-38; Leviticus 8:14, etc.). (For full details of the ceremonial, sac Leviticus 1, 6, 7, 8, passim) The extraordinary number of the burnt offerings on this and some similar occasions may well excite our wonder (Numbers 7:3, 17; 1 Kings 8:64; 2 Chronicles 4:1 compared with 2 Chronicles 7:7. See also Herod., 'Hist.,' 7:43). The priests, of course, performed the sacrifices at the command of Solomon.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) And Solomon went up thither to the "brasen altar.--So Vulg. incorrectly. Rather, And Solomon offered there on the brasen altar; so LXX. and Syriac.Before the Lord.--The altar stood before the entry of the Lord's dwellingplace (Exodus 40:6). (Comp. Judges 20:23; Judges 20:26.)Which was at the tabernacle of the congregation.--Which altar belonged to the tent of tryst. In 1Kings 6:22 the golden altar is said in like manner to belong to the Holy of holies, before which it stood. (The Vulg. seems to have read "the brasen altar, before the Lord's tent of meeting"; comp. 2Chronicles 1:3.) . . .
