וְשָׁמַרְתָּ֞ אֶת־מִשְׁמֶ֣רֶת ׀ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ לָלֶ֤כֶת בִּדְרָכָיו֙ לִשְׁמֹ֨ר חֻקֹּתָ֤יו מִצְוֺתָיו֙ וּמִשְׁפָּטָ֣יו וְעֵדְוֺתָ֔יו כַּכָּת֖וּב בְּתוֹרַ֣ת מֹשֶׁ֑ה לְמַ֣עַן תַּשְׂכִּ֗יל אֵ֚ת כָּל־אֲשֶׁ֣ר תַּֽעֲשֶׂ֔ה וְאֵ֛ת כָּל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר תִּפְנֶ֖ה שָֽׁם׃
Beobachte die Vorschriften des Herrn deines Gottes, dass du auf seinen Wegen gehest, seine Satzungen wahrest, seine Gebote, seine Rechte und seine Zeugnisse, wie geschrieben ist in der Lehre Moses; damit du glücklich seiest in allem, was du thuest, und überall, wohin du dich wendest.

We find that Solomon tells Chirom that he has the task to build the temple of which G-d had told his father David that his son would build it. (Kings I 5, 19.) The Zohar points out that when G-d mentions the selection of a city for His temple and the appointment of a king, the fact that David was chosen king does not indicate that the time had arrived to build the temple. Since it was David's dearest wish however, and after him that of Solomon, G-d did not prevent Solomon from building the temple. The latter, however, had persuaded himself that he had been carrying out G-d’s desire. G-d Himself warns Solomon in Kings I chapter six, that the continued existence of the temple would depend on a number of conditions. Not so with the beyt olamim, the eventual temple, as we have demonstrated previously. The warning is repeated during the dedication ceremony.
