1 Kings 6

31  And for the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive-wood: the lintel `and' door-posts were a fifth part `of the wall'.

32  So `he made' two doors of olive-wood; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread the gold upon the cherubim, and upon the palm-trees.

33  So also made he for the entrance of the temple door-posts of olive-wood, out of a fourth part `of the wall';

34  And two doors of fir-wood: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.

35  And he carved `thereon' cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold fitted upon the graven work.

36  And he built the inner court with three courses of hewn stone, and a course of cedar beams.

37  In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of Jehovah laid, in the month Ziv.

38  And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.
