What does 2 Chronicles 2:5 mean?

I’m building a temple for the Lord my God. It will be dedicated to him, a place to burn incense, set out the sacred bread, and offer burnt offerings every morning and evening, on Sabbaths, new moons, and the festivals. This is a permanent law for Israel.' 2 Chronicles 2:5 - Modern Text Bible

(Solomon explains the temple’s purpose: a place for worship and offerings, following Israel’s traditions.)
