1 Kings 6:29-35

29He carved all the surrounding temple walls with carved engravings — cherubim, palm trees, and flower blossoms — in the inner and outer sanctuaries.

30He overlaid the temple floor with gold in both the inner and the outer sanctuaries.

31For the entrance of the inner sanctuary, he made olive wood doors. The pillars of the doorposts were five-sided.

32The two doors were made of olive wood. He carved cherubim, palm trees, and flower blossoms on them and overlaid them with gold, hammering gold over the cherubim and palm trees.

33In the same way, he made four-sided olive wood doorposts for the sanctuary entrance.

34The two doors were made of cypress wood; the first door had two folding sides, and the second door had two folding panels.

35He carved cherubim, palm trees, and flower blossoms on them and overlaid them with gold applied evenly over the carving.
