Contextual Overview

¹⁵he paneled the interior temple walls with cedar boards; from the temple floor to the surface of the ceiling he overlaid the interior with wood. He also overlaid the floor with cypress boards. ¹⁶Then he lined thirty feet of the rear of the temple with cedar boards from the floor to the surface of the ceiling, and he built the interior as an inner sanctuary, the most holy place. ¹⁷The temple, that is, the sanctuary in front of the most holy place, was sixty feet long. ¹⁸The cedar paneling inside the temple was carved with ornamental gourds and flower blossoms. Everything was cedar; not a stone could be seen. ¹⁹He prepared the inner sanctuary inside the temple to put the ark of the Lord’s covenant there. ²⁰The interior of the sanctuary was thirty feet long, thirty feet wide, and thirty feet high; he overlaid it with pure gold. He also overlaid the cedar altar. ²¹Next, Solomon overlaid the interior of the temple with pure gold, and he hung gold chains across the front of the inner sanctuary and overlaid it with gold. ²²So he added the gold overlay to the entire temple until everything was completely finished, including the entire altar that belongs to the inner sanctuary. ²³In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim 15 feet high out of olive wood. ²⁴One wing of the first cherub was 7½ feet long, and the other wing was 7½ feet long. The wingspan was 15 feet from tip to tip.
