2 Chronicles 3:2

Solomon Builds the Temple

1 Now ^aSolomon began to build the house of the Lord at ^bJerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David, at the place that David had prepared on the threshing floor of ^cOrnan the Jebusite.

2 And he began to build on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.

3 This is the foundation ^awhich Solomon laid for building the house of God: The length was sixty cubits (by cubits according to the former measure) and the width twenty cubits.

4 And the ^avestibule that was in front of¹ the sanctuary was twenty cubits long across the width of the house, and the height was² one hundred and twenty. He overlaid the inside with pure gold.
