14 A curtain for the Most Holy Place was made of linen and of other material, which was dyed blue, purple, and red, with designs of the winged creatures worked into it.
15 The king made two columns, each one 15.5 metres tall, and placed them in front of the Temple. Each one had a capital 2.2 metres tall.
16 The tops of the columns were decorated with a design of interwoven chains and 100 bronze pomegranates.
17 The columns were set at the sides of the temple entrance: the one on the south side was named Jachin, and the one on the north side was named Boaz.
