Oct 1, 2024
Solomon spent thirteen years building his house. The measurements are provided in cubits, generally the length from the elbow to the tip of the longest finger. The cubit could have been understood as a measure of around 18-20 inches. Solomon’s house was very large. This palace included a hall for Solomon, a hall for his wife, and a hall of judgement. The furnishings for the temple were finished with great detail. Solomon took everything David dedicated and stored them in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
