1 Kings 3:2

2The people, however, were still sacrificing at the high places, because a temple had not yet been built for the Name of the Lord.

2The people were still sacrificing on the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the Lord until those days.

2The people were still sacrificing on the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the Lord until those days.

2But [in the meantime] the people were still sacrificing [to God] on the high places (hilltops) [as the pagans did to their idols], for there was no [permanent] house yet built for the 3:2 See note Deut 12:5.Name of the Lord.

2The people, however, were still sacrificing on the high places because a house for the Name of the Lord had not yet been built.

2But the people continued to offer sacrifices at the high places where they worshiped. That’s because a temple hadn’t been built yet where the Lord would put his Name.
