1. And Solomon built his own house in thirteen years, and brought it to perfection.
2. He built also the house of the forest of Libanus, the length of it was a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty cubits, and the height thirty cubits: and four galleries between pillars of cedar: for he had cut cedar trees into pillars.
3. And he covered the whole vault with boards of cedar, and it was held up with five and forty pillars. And one row had fifteen pillars,
4. Set one against another,
5. And looking one upon another, with equal space between the pillars, and over the pillars were square beams in all things equal.
6. And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch: and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars.
7. He made also the porch of the throne, wherein is the seat of judgment: and covered it with cedar wood from the floor to the top.
