13 Thus he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long. The restricted area, its building and walls, measured a hundred cubits in length.
14 The temple facade, along with the restricted area to the east, was also one hundred cubits wide.
15 He then measured the building opposite the restricted area which was behind it, together with its terraces on both sides, one hundred cubits. The inner nave and the outer vestibule
16 were paneled; the windows had recesses and precious wood trim around all three sides except the sill. Paneling covered the walls from the floor up to the windows and even the window sections.
17 Even above the doorway and in the inner part of the temple and outside as well, around all the walls inside and out,
18 were figures of cherubim and palm trees: a palm tree between each pair of cherubim. Each cherub had two faces:
19 the face of a human being looked toward one palm tree and the face of a lion looked toward the other palm tree. Thus the figures covered all the walls around the temple.
