God appears to Solomon again
2 Chronicles 7:11-22
11Solomon finished the house of YHWH and the house of the king; and in all that came into Solomon’s heart to do in the house of YHWH and in his own house he prospered. 12YHWH appeared to Solomon at night and said to him, “I have heard your prayer, and I have chosen this place for myself as a house of sacrifice. 13If I shut up the heavens and there is no rain, or if I command the grasshopper to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people, 14and my people, over whom my name is called, humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their evil ways, then I will hear from the heavens and forgive their sin and heal their land. 15Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer of this place. 16And now I have chosen and consecrated this house so that my name may be there forever; and my eyes and my heart will be there all the days. 17As for you, if you walk before me as David your father walked, doing according to all that I have commanded you, and keep my statutes and my rules, 18then I will establish the throne of your kingdom, as I covenanted with David your father, saying, ‘There shall not be cut off for you a man ruling in Israel.’ 19But if you turn away and abandon my statutes and my commandments that I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, 20then I will uproot them from my land that I have given them, and this house that I have consecrated for my name I will cast out from before my face, and I will make it a byword and a taunt among all the peoples. 21And this house, which was high, everyone passing by it will be appalled and say, ‘Why has YHWH done thus to this land and to this house?’ 22And they will say, ‘Because they abandoned YHWH, the Elohim of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and held fast to other gods and bowed down to them and served them; therefore he has brought upon them all this evil.’”
1And it happened, when Solomon had finished building the house of YHWH and the house of the king and all the desire of Solomon that he was pleased to do, 2that YHWH appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon. 3And YHWH said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication with which you made supplication before me; I have consecrated this house that you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart will be there all the days. 4And you, if you walk before me as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, doing according to all that I have commanded you, and keep my statutes and my rules, 5then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I spoke concerning David your father, saying, ‘There shall not be cut off for you a man from the throne of Israel.’ 6But if you and your sons indeed turn back from following me and do not keep my commandments, my statutes, that I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, 7then I will cut off Israel from the face of the land that I have given them; and the house that I have consecrated for my name I will cast out from before my face; and Israel will become a byword and a taunt among all the peoples. 8And this house will be high; everyone who passes by it will be appalled and will hiss, and they will say, ‘Why has YHWH done thus to this land and to this house?’ 9And they will say, ‘Because they abandoned YHWH their Elohim, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and they held fast to other gods and bowed down to them and served them; therefore YHWH has brought on them all this evil.’”
Egypt
Today: Egypt (Nile Valley)

Joseph was sold into it, and his family went down to live there (Gen 37:28; 46:6). God brought Israel out of it with a mighty hand (Exod 12:41). The child Jesus fled there with his parents (Matt 2:14).
21And this house, which was high, everyone passing by it will be appalled and say, ‘Why has YHWH done thus to this land and to this house?’
