1 Kings 6:15
Verse 15 of 38. The 6th of 22 chapters in 1 Kings, in History.
11The LORD’s word came to Solomon, saying,
12“Concerning this house which you are building, if you will walk in my statutes, and execute my ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them, then I will establish my word with you, which I spoke to David your father.
13I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.”
14So Solomon built the house and finished it.
15He built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar; from the floor of the house to the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood. He covered the floor of the house with cypress boards.
16He built twenty cubits of the back part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor to the ceiling. He built this within, for an inner sanctuary, even for the most holy place.
17In front of the temple sanctuary was forty cubits long.
18There was cedar on the house within, carved with buds and open flowers. All was cedar. No stone was visible.
19He prepared an inner sanctuary in the middle of the house within, to set the ark of the LORD’s covenant there.
