2 And the priests were not able to go into the house of the Lord, for the Lord's house was full of the glory of the Lord.
So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.
And the glory of the Lord was like a flame on the top of the mountain before the eyes of the children of Israel.

Commentary on 2 Chronicles 7 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 7
In this chapter we have God's answer to Solomon's prayer.
2Ch 7:1-11
Here is,
2Ch 7:12-22
That God accepted Solomon's prayer appeared by the fire from heaven. But a prayer may be accepted and yet not answered in the letter of it; and therefore God appeared to him in the night, as he did once before (ch. 1:7), and after a day of sacrifice too, as then, and gave him a peculiar answer to his prayer. We had the substance of it before, 1 Ki. 9:2-9.
