1 Kings 5:12-18

12So the Lord gave Solomon wisdom, as he had promised him. And Hiram and Solomon were at peace and made a treaty.

13King Solomon conscripted work crews from throughout Israel, 30,000 men in all.

14He sent them to Lebanon in shifts of 10,000 men per month. They worked in Lebanon for one month, and then spent two months at home. Adoniram was supervisor of the work crews.

15Solomon also had 70,000 common laborers and 80,000 stonecutters in the hills,

16besides 3,300 officials who supervised the workers.

17By royal order they supplied large valuable stones in order to build the temple’s foundation with chiseled stone.

18Solomon’s and Hiram’s construction workers, along with men from Byblos, did the chiseling and prepared the wood and stones for the building of the temple.
