Similar to 1 Kings 8:64, yet contradicts in that it implies offerings were only at the established altar, not extending to the courtyard as necessity dictated in 1 Kings.
2 Chronicles 7:7: Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that [was] before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.
Contradiction with Hebrews 10:4
