2 Chronicles 3:3-7

3Solomon laid the foundation for God’s temple; its length (determined according to the old standard of measure) was 90 feet, and its width 30 feet.

4The porch in front of the main hall was 30 feet long, corresponding to the width of the temple, and its height was 30 feet. He plated the inside with pure gold.

5He paneled the main hall with boards made from evergreen trees and plated it with fine gold, decorated with palm trees and chains.

6He decorated the temple with precious stones; the gold he used came from Parvaim.

7He overlaid the temple’s rafters, thresholds, walls and doors with gold; he carved decorative cherubim on the walls.
