Footnotes
The chapter closes as it opened — with architectural precision — but the final image is one of living beauty: sealed windows (the sanctuary lit from beyond itself), palm trees (the righteous flourishing, Ps 92:12), and the structural thickness of the building holding it all together. The body-imagery of the Hebraic text persists to the very last verse: כִּתְפוֹת (*kitphot*, 'shoulders') of the vestibule and צַלְעוֹת (*tsela'ot*, 'ribs/flanks') of the House. The living temple breathes with human and arboreal imagery — a dwelling shaped like a body, sheltering the Presence of YHWH in its innermost rib.
