Acts 7:45-47

The Voice

⁴⁵ When Joshua led our ancestors to dispossess the nations God drove out before them, our ancestors carried this sacred tent. It remained here in the land until the time of David. ⁴⁶ David found favor with God and asked Him for permission to build a permanent structure (rather than a portable tent) to honor Him. ⁴⁷ It was, of course, Solomon who actually built God’s house.
