14 A curtain was made of fine linen woven with blue, purple, and red wool, and embroidered with designs of winged creatures.
15 Two columns were made for the entrance to the temple. Each one was 16 meters tall and had a cap on top that was over 2 meters high.
16 The top of each column was decorated with designs that looked like chains and with 100 carvings of pomegranates.
17 Solomon had one of the columns placed on the south side of the temple's entrance; it was called Jachin. The other one was placed on the north side of the entrance; it was called Boaz.
