6. He built a colonnaded courtyard seventy-five feet long and forty-five wide. It had a roofed porch at the front with ample eaves.
7. He built a court room, the Hall of Justice, where he would decide judicial matters, and paneled it with cedar.
8. He built his personal residence behind the Hall on a similar plan. Solomon also built another one just like it for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had married.
45-47. All these artifacts that Hiram made for King Solomon for The Temple of God were of burnished bronze. He cast them in clay in a foundry on the Jordan plain between Succoth and Zarethan. These artifacts were never weighed—there were far too many! Nobody has any idea how much bronze was used.
48-50. Solomon was also responsible for all the furniture and accessories in The Temple of God:the gold Altar;the gold Table that held the Bread of the Presence;the pure gold candelabras, five to the right and five to theleft in front of the Inner Sanctuary;the gold flowers, lamps, and tongs;the pure gold dishes, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, ladles, andcensers;the gold sockets for the doors of the Inner Sanctuary, the Holy ofHolies, used also for the doors of the Main Sanctuary.
51. That completed all the work King Solomon did on The Temple of God. He then brought in the items consecrated by his father David, the silver and the gold and the artifacts. He placed them all in the treasury of God’s Temple.
