Matthew23:21
Him that dwelleth therein. That is, God. The temple was his house, his dwelling. In the first, or Solomon's temple, he dwelt between the cherubims, in the most holy place. He manifested himself there by a visible symbol, in the form of a cloud resting on the mercy-seat, 1Kgs 8:10,13, Ps 80:1.
(g) "him that dwelleth" 2Chr 6:2, Ps 26:8
