The word "mansion" is related to the word "manse" which means "a large stately house, suffiecent land for a family". This was the meaning when the KJV translators used the word.

The "house of Israel" was full of familes who lived in homes, not rooms. So the word "house" doesn't necessarily mean "home". Again, in 1611, the word "house" did not mean "home" (i.e. building) but rather "family" or "dynasty" as in the House of Tudor, etc. I'm sure everyone in the House of Tudor had their own mansion.

That's good stuff brother! amen.gif
