וביתו אשר ישב שם חצר האחרת מבית לאולם כמעשה הזה היה ובית יעשה לבת פרעה אשר לקח שלמה כאולם הזה
Biblia Hebrica Stuttgartensia (1967/77)
וּבֵיתוֹ֩ אֲשֶׁר־יֵ֨שֶׁב שָׁ֜ם חָצֵ֣ר הָאַחֶ֗רֶת מִבֵּית֙ לָֽאוּלָ֔ם כַּמַּֽעֲשֶׂ֥ה הַזֶּ֖ה הָיָ֑ה וּבַ֜יִת יַעֲשֶׂ֤ה לְבַת־פַּרְעֹה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לָקַ֣ח שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה כָּאוּלָ֖ם הַזֶּֽה ׃
Westminster Leningrad Codex
וּבֵיתוֹ אֲשֶׁר־יֵשֶׁב שָׁם חָצֵר הָאַחֶרֶת מִבֵּית לָֽאוּלָם כַּמַּֽעֲשֶׂה הַזֶּה הָיָה וּבַיִת יַעֲשֶׂה לְבַת־פַּרְעֹה אֲשֶׁר לָקַח שְׁלֹמֹה כָּאוּלָם הַזֶּֽה ׃

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

another court: 2 Kings 20:4

an house: 1 Kings 3:1, 1 Kings 9:24, 2 Chronicles 8:11

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 4:18 - Bithiah Ecclesiastes 2:4 - I builded

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And his house where he dwelt,.... Which was properly his dwellingplace, that part of the house where he usually resided:

[had] another court within the porch, which [was] of the like work; a court between that and the porch, called the inner court, 2 Kings 20:4.

Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken to wife; see 1 Kings 3:1,

like unto this porch: being built of the same sort of materials, though in a different form.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Like unto this porch - i. e., of similar materials, hewn stone and cedar. The zenana could not have been a mere portico.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 7:8. A house for Pharaoh's daughter — This appears to have been a third house; probably the whole three made but one building, and were in the same place, but distinguished from each other; the first as Solomon's palace, the second as a house of judgment, a court-house; the third, the harem, or apartments for the women.
