Adam Clarke's Commentary

Introduction

Solomon having finished the temple, brings in the things which his father had consecrated, 2Chr 5:1. He assembles the elders and chiefs of Israel and the Levites, in order to bring up the ark from the city of David, 2Chr 5:2, 2Chr 5:3. They bring it and its vessels; and having offered innumerable sacrifices, place it in the temple, under the wings of the cherubim, 2Chr 5:4-10. The Levites, singers, and trumpeters praise God; and his glory descends and fills the house, so that the priests cannot stand to minister, 2Chr 5:11-14. Verse 1 Brought in all the things - See the note on 1Kgs 7:51.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on 2 Chronicles 5:1-10
The ark was a type of Christ, and, as such, a token of the presence of God. That gracious promise, Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world, does, in effect, bring the ark into our religious assemblies, if we by faith and prayer plead that promise; and this we should be most earnest for. When Christ is formed in a soul, the law written in the heart, the ark of the covenant settled there, so that it becomes the temple of the Holy Ghost, there is true satisfaction in that soul.
