Ephesians 2:20-22, 1 Peter 2:5

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 7:9 - costly stones

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And above were costly stones,.... Above the foundation, from thence to the top of the buildings; the whole walls were made of such right up to the ceiling:

after the measure of hewed stones; which, according to the Rabbins, as Kimchi says, were five hands breadth:

and cedars; beams of cedars over them, or these, both the foundation and the walls, were lined with them.
