# Yahweh has said that he
|

# I have built you a lofty residence
|
|
|
|
Solomon speaks of commanding the people to build the temple and telling them how to do it as if he himself had built it. AT: "I and your people have built you a lofty residence" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])

# while all the assembly of Israel was standing
|
|
|
|
The phrase "all the assembly" is a generalization. It does not mean that every person of Israel was standing, but that all of the people who were gathered there were standing. AT: "while the people of Israel there were standing" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])
