Acts 7:48
Yet the Most High inhabiteth not temples made with hands - As Solomon declared at the very dedication of the temple, I Kings 8:27. The Most High - Whom as such no building can contain. Isaiah 66:1.
46 awho found favor before God and basked to find a dwelling for the God of Jacob.
47 aBut Solomon built Him a house.
48 “However, athe Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says:
49 ‘Heavena is My throne,
And earth is My footstool.
What house will you build for Me? says the Lord,
Or what is the place of My rest?
And earth is My footstool.
What house will you build for Me? says the Lord,
Or what is the place of My rest?
50 Has My hand not amade all these things?’
Israel Resists the Holy Spirit
51 “You astiff-necked and buncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.
