Contextual Overview

¹ And Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. ² And he began to build on the second of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign. ³ And this was Solomon's foundation for the construction of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. ⁴ And the porch which was in front was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, and the height was a hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold. ⁵ And the greater house he boarded with cypress-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm-trees and chains. ⁶ And he overlaid the house with precious stones for beauty; and the gold was gold of Parvaim. ⁷ And he covered the house, the beams, the threshold, and its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim on the walls. ⁸ And he made the house of the most holy place, the length of which was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits; and he covered it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents. ⁹ And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he covered the upper chambers with gold.
