1Kings:6:20-35
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold :
and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle ;
and he overlaid it with gold .
*
And the whole house he overlaid with gold ,
until he had finished all the house :
also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold .
*
And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree ,
each ten cubits high .
*
And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub ,
and five cubits the other wing of the cherub :
from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits .
*
And the other cherub was ten cubits :
both the cherubims were of one measure and one size .
*
The height of the one cherub was ten cubits ,
and so was it of the other cherub .
*
And he set the cherubims within the inner house :
and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims ,
so that the wing of the one touched the one wall ,
and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall ;
and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house .
*
And he overlaid the cherubims with gold .
*
And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers ,
within and without .
*
And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold ,
within and without .
*
And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree :
the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall .
*
The two doors also were of olive tree ;
and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers ,
and overlaid them with gold ,
and spread gold upon the cherubims ,
and upon the palm trees .
*
So also made he for the door of the temple posts of olive tree ,
a fourth part of the wall .
*
And the two doors were of fir tree :
the two leaves of the one door were folding ,
and the two leaves of the other door were folding .
*
And he carved thereon cherubims and palm trees and open flowers :
and covered them with gold fitted upon the carved work .
