When Solomon completed the construction of the First Temple in Jerusalem, the city solidified its position as the center of Israel’s religious, political and economic world. The Temple housed the ark of the covenant, which was associated with the physical presence of God, and it was placed in close proximity to the palace of Jerusalem’s richest king to date, King Solomon.
