2Ch_7:1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.

Ver. 1. The fire came down from heaven.] In a miraculous manner, to testify God’s approbation. This fire was kept alive till the captivity of Babylon: and after that, it was said to have been miraculously also renewed; {/APC 2Ma 1:18-22} fides sit penes authorem.

And the glory of the Lord filled the house,] i.e., The thick cloud, a sign of God’s glory, hidden here from us who are not able to behold it: like as we cannot look upon the sun in rota, but only in radiis. When we come to heaven, we shall see him as he is; see as we are seen.
