Yahweh Hears Foreigners From Afar

Yahweh Hears Foreigners From Afar, demonstrates the blessings of the temple of God for all men. This includes those who were not of the house of Israel. In addition, it shows that the influence and reach of the temple extended far beyond the borders and bloodline of Israel. Distance did not mitigate the power of the temple. Jews and Gentiles alike had both religious and commercial interests in Jerusalem and the temple.
