1 Kings 5:13-18
13And king Solomon raised forced labour out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.1 14And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home: and Adoniram was over the forced labour. 15And Solomon had seventy thousand that bore burdens, and eighty thousand hewers in the mountains; 16Besides the chief of Solomon’s officers who were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people that wrought in the work. 17And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, and hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house. 18And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders did hew them, and the stonesquarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.2
