1 Kings 6:27-47

²⁷ These were placed inside the inner house, their outstretched wings touching the walls of the house, one touching one wall and one the other, while their other wings were touching in the middle. ²⁸ These winged ones were plated over with gold. ²⁹ And all the walls of the house inside and out were ornamented with forms of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers. ³⁰ And the floor of the house was covered with gold, inside and out. ³¹ For the way into the inmost room he made doors of olive-wood, the arch and the door supports forming a five-sided opening. ³² On the olive-wood doors were cut designs of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers, all of them, with the doors, plated with gold. ³³ Then he made pillars of olive-wood for the way into the Temple; the pillars were square: ³⁴ And two folding doors of cypress-wood, with two leaves. ³⁵ These were ornamented with designs of winged ones and palm-trees and open flowers, plated over with gold. ³⁶ And the inner space was walled with three lines of squared stones and a line of cedar-wood boards. ³⁷ In the fourth year the base of the house was put in its place, in the month Ziv. ³⁸ And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, the building of the house was complete in every detail, as it had been designed. So he was seven years building it.
