14 So Solomon constructed the temple and completed it.
15 He built the walls within the temple with cedar planks, paneled from the floor to the ceiling. He overlaid the floor of the temple with pine planks.

17 In front of this, the main hall was sixty feet.
18 The cedar inside the temple was carved with gourds and blossoming flowers. The whole thing was cedar. No stone was seen.
19 He set up the inner sanctuary inside the temple so that he could put the chest containing the Lord’s covenant there.
