1 Kings 8:65

And at that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, [even] fourteen days.

Ver. 65. From the entering in of Hamath,] i.e., From north to south. Understand also from east to west.

Seven days and seven days.] The first seven were for the dedication, εγκαινια, the priests, Levites, and one hundred and twenty singers making all manner of music; 2Ch 5:11 the second seven for the feast of tabernacles. Within the first seven days, viz., on the tenth day, fell out their yearly public fast, Lev 23:27 which was dispensed with, as some think. Others hold that they killed their sacrifices on that day also, but ate not of them till the evening, or till the next day, haply.
