Exegesis
The temporal phrase bāʿēt hahî {בָּעֵ֨ת הַהִ֜יא | bāʿēt hahî} ‘at that time’ frames the occasion, while the construct šivʿat yāmîm {שִׁבְעַ֤ת יָמִים֙ | šivʿat yāmîm} ‘seven days’ indicates duration.
In context — 2 Chronicles 7:8
And Solomon held the festival at that time for seven days, and all Israel was with him in a very great assembly from the entrance of Hamath to the wadi of Egypt.
