00:00.620 --> 00:01.620
Chapter six.

00:02.500 --> 00:06.660
And it came to pass in the four hundred
and eightieth year after the children of

00:06.660 --> 00:10.960
Israel were come out of the land of Egypt,
in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over

00:10.960 --> 00:15.500
Israel, in the month Ziph, which is the
second month, that he began to build the

00:15.500 --> 00:16.320
house of the Lord.

00:17.320 --> 00:21.220
And the house which King Solomon built for
the Lord, the length thereof was

00:21.220 --> 00:26.280
threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof
twenty cubits, and the height thereof

00:26.280 --> 00:27.380
thirty cubits.

00:28.080 --> 00:32.020
And the porch before the temple of the
house, twenty cubits was the length

00:32.020 --> 00:34.540
thereof, according to the breadth of the
house.

00:35.200 --> 00:38.300
And ten cubits was the breadth thereof
before the house.

00:39.100 --> 00:42.200
And for the house he made windows of
narrow lights.

00:44.060 --> 00:48.460
And against the wall of the house he built
chambers round about, against the walls of

00:48.460 --> 00:53.160
the house round about, both of the temple
and of the oracle, and he made chambers

00:53.160 --> 00:53.780
round about.

00:54.380 --> 00:58.780
The nethermost chamber was five cubits
broad, and the middle was six cubits

00:58.780 --> 01:01.380
broad, and the third was seven cubits
broad.

01:02.380 --> 01:06.660
For without in the wall of the house he
made narrowed rests round about,

01:07.100 --> 01:09.820
that the beams should not be fastened in
the walls of the house.

01:11.140 --> 01:15.280
And the house when it was in building was
built of stone made ready before it was

01:15.280 --> 01:20.340
brought thither, so that there was neither
hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard

01:20.340 --> 01:22.100
in the house while it was in building.

01:22.720 --> 01:27.660
The door for the middle chamber was in the
right side of the house, and they went up

01:27.660 --> 01:31.520
with winding stairs into the middle
chamber, and out of the middle into the

01:31.520 --> 01:31.880
third.

01:33.240 --> 01:37.840
So he built the house and finished it,
and covered the house with beams and

01:37.840 --> 01:38.720
boards of cedar.

01:39.600 --> 01:45.020
And then he built chambers against all the
house, five cubits high, and they rested

01:45.020 --> 01:46.820
on the house with timber of cedar.

01:48.680 --> 01:53.320
And the word of the Lord came to Solomon,
saying, Concerning this house which thou

01:53.320 --> 01:57.880
art in building, if thou wilt walk in my
statutes and execute my judgments,

01:58.380 --> 02:03.300
and keep all my commandments to walk in
them, then will I perform my word with

02:03.300 --> 02:08.300
thee, which I spake unto David thy father,
and I will dwell among the children of

02:08.300 --> 02:11.380
Israel, and will not forsake my people
Israel.

02:11.920 --> 02:14.260
So Solomon built the house and finished
it.

02:14.900 --> 02:19.060
And he built the walls of the house within
with boards of cedar, both the floor of

02:19.060 --> 02:20.660
the house and the walls of the ceiling.

02:21.380 --> 02:25.400
And he covered them on the inside with
wood, and covered the floor of the house

02:25.400 --> 02:26.620
with planks of fir.

02:27.800 --> 02:32.460
And he built twenty cubits on the sides of
the house, both the floor and the walls

02:32.460 --> 02:33.620
with boards of cedar.

02:34.540 --> 02:38.880
He even built them for it within,
even for the oracle, even for the most

02:38.880 --> 02:39.660
holy place.

02:40.840 --> 02:45.240
And the house, that is, the temple before
it, was forty cubits long.

02:46.020 --> 02:50.020
And the cedar of the house within was
carved with knops and open flowers.

02:50.620 --> 02:53.320
All was cedar, there was no stone seen.

02:54.380 --> 02:58.560
And the oracle he prepared in the house
within, to set there the ark of the

02:58.560 --> 02:59.420
covenant of the Lord.

03:00.320 --> 03:04.280
And the oracle in the forepart was twenty
cubits in length, and twenty cubits in

03:04.280 --> 03:06.880
breadth, and twenty cubits in the height
thereof.

03:07.540 --> 03:12.300
And he overlaid it with pure gold,
and so covered the altar which was of

03:12.300 --> 03:12.560
cedar.

03:13.580 --> 03:18.720
So Solomon overlaid the house within with
pure gold, and he made a partition by the

03:18.720 --> 03:22.500
chains of gold before the oracle,
and he overlaid it with gold.

03:23.640 --> 03:27.900
And the whole house he overlaid with gold,
until he had finished all the house.

03:28.680 --> 03:32.520
Also the whole altar that was by the
oracle he overlaid with gold.

03:33.740 --> 03:38.480
And within the oracle he made two
cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits

03:38.480 --> 03:38.740
high.

03:39.520 --> 03:44.560
And five cubits was the one wing of the
cherub, and five cubits the other wing of

03:44.560 --> 03:45.040
the cherub.

03:45.860 --> 03:50.240
From the uttermost part of the one wing
unto the uttermost part of the other were

03:50.240 --> 03:53.460
ten cubits, and the other cherub was ten
cubits.

03:54.200 --> 03:57.180
Both the cherubims were of one measure and
one size.

03:58.600 --> 04:03.000
The height of the one cherub was ten
cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.

04:03.960 --> 04:09.020
And he set the cherubims within the inner
house, and they stretched forth the wings

04:09.020 --> 04:13.600
of the cherubims, so that the wing of the
one touched the one wall, and the wing of

04:13.600 --> 04:18.140
the other cherub touched the other wall,
and their wings touched one another in the

04:18.140 --> 04:18.960
midst of the house.

04:19.940 --> 04:25.000
And he overlaid the cherubims with gold,
and he carved all the walls of the house

04:25.000 --> 04:29.520
round about with carved figures of
cherubims and palm trees and open flowers,

04:29.920 --> 04:30.980
within and without.

04:32.300 --> 04:36.080
And the floor of the house he overlaid
with gold, within and without.

04:37.920 --> 04:41.800
And for the entering of the oracle he made
doors of olive tree.

04:42.460 --> 04:45.620
The lintel and side posts were a fifth
part of the wall.

04:46.440 --> 04:51.220
The two doors also were of olive tree,
and he carved upon them carvings of

04:51.220 --> 04:56.500
cherubims and palm trees and open flowers,
and overlaid them with gold, and spread

04:56.500 --> 04:59.080
gold upon the cherubims and upon the palm
trees.

05:00.480 --> 05:06.020
So also made he for the door of the temple
posts of olive tree, a fourth part of the

05:06.020 --> 05:06.280
wall.

05:07.160 --> 05:08.920
And the two doors were of fir tree.

05:09.620 --> 05:13.440
The two leaves of the one door were
folding, and the two leaves of the other

05:13.440 --> 05:14.280
door were folding.

05:15.220 --> 05:20.540
And he carved thereon cherubims and palm
trees and open flowers, and covered them

05:20.540 --> 05:22.820
with gold fitted upon the carved work.

05:24.360 --> 05:28.940
And he built the inner court with three
rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar

05:28.940 --> 05:29.300
beams.

05:31.680 --> 05:35.900
In the fourth year was the foundation of
the house of the Lord laid, in the month

05:35.900 --> 05:36.280
Ziph.

05:37.360 --> 05:40.980
And in the eleventh year, in the month
Bul, which is the eighth month,

05:41.400 --> 05:45.520
was the house finished throughout all the
parts thereof, and according to all the

05:45.520 --> 05:46.100
fashion of it.

05:47.140 --> 05:49.380
So was he seven years in building it.
