Psalm 84:3
“Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 84Meaning
The birds contribute to the poetry of nearness and home; the verse should not be forced into a technical claim about temple architecture.
Longing for God's dwelling
The worshiper longs for God's courts and blesses those who dwell in his house.
Read carefully
The poetic image emphasizes nearness and belonging; the exact spatial detail is not the point.
Reflection
Make communities of worship hospitable rather than status-driven.
