So Solomon built the house, and finished it.(1 Kings 6:14)

And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.(1 Kings 6:15)

And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place.(1 Kings 6:16)

And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.

And the cedar of the house within was carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.(1 Kings 6:18)

And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.(1 Kings 6:19)

And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar.(1 Kings 6:20)
