2 Chronicles 6:33
Then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy name, and fear thee, as doth thy people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by thy name.
The verse belongs to the account of Solomon's life and the history following his reign. It is part of Solomon's vocal prayer offered after the temple was erected, kneeling upon a brazen scaffold in the presence and hearing of the people of Israel, with its words preserved in the Bible as evidence for public prayer. After the prayer ended, fire was sent from heaven and consumed the burnt offering, and God appeared to Solomon by night saying the prayer had been heard.
In the verse Solomon asks God to hear from heaven the foreigners from distant lands who come to the temple seeking Him because of His great name and mighty power, and to do according to all that they ask. This welcome and answer were meant so that all peoples of the earth may know God's name and fear Him as Israel does, and may know that the house Solomon built is called by God's name.
Although the temple was dedicated to God's name, it did not confine Him there, correcting the heathen idea that a god is limited to a temple. God meets His people by His Spirit when they gather for worship, and His presence and care reach them wherever they are. The verse declares the temple Solomon built was called by God's name to honor God, yet later Solomon accepted praise for its splendor and people ascribed it to the human builder by name, giving him the glory belonging to God.
