Explanation preview
This verse describes the throne room of Solomon as the Chronicler pictures it: the king is speaking through the narrator to a post-exilic community rebuilding after exile, recalling the glory of David's dynasty. The twelve lions flanking the six steps match the two lions beside the armrests in verse 18.
