2 Chronicles 3 (성경통독): This chapter talks about how Solomon broke ground, launched construction of the house of God in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, the place where God had appeared to his father David. The dimensions that Solomon set for the construction of the house of God were as follows: ninety feet long and thirty feet wide. The porch in front stretched the width of the building, that is, thirty feet; and it was thirty feet high. Solomon decorated the building with precious stones and gold from Parvaim. Everything was coated with gold veneer: rafters, doorframes, walls, and doors. Cherubim were engraved on the walls. He made the Holy of Holies a cube, thirty feet wide, long, and high. It was veneered with six hundred talents (something over twenty-two tons) of gold. Also, Solomon made two sculptures of cherubim, gigantic angel-like figures, for the Holy of Holies, both veneered with gold....Although all these were earthly valuables in the eyes of the world, God still must have been pleased since Solomon had poured out his heart and everything he possessed to God.
