Contextual Overview

15 And seeled the walles of the house within with boordes of Cedar tree: euen fro the pauement of the house vnto the roofe did he seele the walles of it within with Cedar tree: and boorded the floore of the house with planckes of firre. 16 And he builded twentie cubites in the sydes of the quier of the temple both floore & walles with boordes of Cedar: and dressed it within the secret place of the temple, euen in the most holy. 17 But the house, that is the temple before it, was fourtie cubites [long.] 18 And the Cedar of the house within, was carued with knoppes, and grauen with flowres: & all was Cedar timber, so that no stone was sene. 19 And the quier that was within the temple he prepared, to set there the arke of the appoyntment of the Lorde. 20 And the quier before was twentie cubites long, & twentie cubites in breadth, and twentie cubites in height: And he couered it with pure golde, and boorded the aulter with Cedar. 21 So Solomon couered the house within with pure golde: And he made golde barres runne along the quier, which he had couered with golde. 22 And the whole house he ouerlayde with golde vntil he had ended it: also al the aulter that was in the quier he ouerlayde with golde. 23 And within the quier he made two Cherubims of Oliue tree ten cubites hie. 24 Fiue cubites long was a wing of the one Cherub, & fiue cubites long was a wing of the other Cherub: so that from the vttermost part of one wing, vnto the vttermost part of the other, were ten cubites.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

he built: That is, he lined or wainscoted the walls with cedar, the floor being covered with planks of fir. the marginal reading in this verse is preferable, as it removes every difficulty and obscurity.

both the floor of the house, and the walls: or, from the floor of the house, unto the walls, etc. and so 1 Kings 6:16

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 5:8 - timber of fir 2 Chronicles 3:5 - the greater Ezekiel 41:16 - ceiled with wood

Cross-References

Genesis 7:20
Fyfteene cubites vpward did the waters preuayle, so that the mountaynes were couered.
Deuteronomy 3:11
For only Og kyng of Basan, remayned of the remnaunt of the giauntes, whose bed was a bed of iron: And is it not yet at Rabbath among ye children of Ammon? Nine cubites doth the length therof contayne, and foure cubites the breadth of it, after the cubite of a man.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar,.... For as yet he had only built the stone walls of it without, but now he wainscotted it with cedar boards: and not only them, but

both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling; or from "the floor of the house unto the walls of the ceiling"; that is, from the floor, including that, to the walls on each side, reaching up to the ceiling,

he covered [them] on the inside with wood: of one sort or another, cedar or fir, or both: particularly he

covered the floor of the house with planks of fir: which Hiram sent him, 1 Kings 5:8; which is differently interpreted; by Josephus cypress; by others, as the Tigurine version, pine tree wood; it is very probable it was of the cedar kind, and not the floor only, but the ceiling also, 2 Chronicles 3:5.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The description of this verse applies to the main chamber of the temple, the holy place, only. The writer in 1 Kings 6:16 describes the holy of holies.

The marginal rendering of this verse is right, and not the rendering in the text.

Fir - Rather, “juniper.” See 1 Kings 5:6 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 6:15. The walls of the ceiling1 Kings 6:9.
