1 Kings 8:14
"And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: (and all the congregation of Israel stood;)"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And the king turned his face about,.... He was before the altar, Kg1 8:22 , with his face to that first, and looking towards the holy and the most holy

place, filled with the cloud and glory; and now he turned himself and stood with the altar behind him, and looking to the court of the people: and blessed all the congregation of Israel; either blessed the Lord before them, or prayed for blessings for them, or congratulated them upon the Lord's taking up his residence in the temple, which was so great an honour and favour to them: and all the congregation of Israel stood: ready to receive the king's blessing, and in honour of him, and reverence to the divine Being. The Jews say, none might sit in the court but the kings of the house of David.
