Solomon Builds the Temple
1 And ait came to pass in the four hundred and1 eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of2 Ziv, which is the second month, bthat he began to build the house of the Lord.
2 Now athe house which King Solomon built for the Lord, its length was sixty cubits, its width twenty, and its height thirty cubits.
3 The vestibule in front of the1 sanctuary of the house was twenty cubits long across the width of the house, and the width of3 the vestibule extended ten cubits from the front of the house.
4 And he made for the house awindows with beveled frames.
5 Against the wall of the1 temple he built achambers all around, against the walls of the temple, all around the sanctuary band the inner sanctuary. Thus he made side chambers all around it.
