I KINGS

I Kings 6

1And in the foure hundreth and foure score yeere (after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt) and in the fourth yere of the reigne of Salomon ouer Israel, in the moneth Zif, (which is the second moneth) he built the house of the Lord.
2 Chronicles 3:1, 2 Chronicles 3:2, 2 Chronicles 3:1, 2 Chronicles 3:2, Acts 7:47
2And the house which King Salomon built for the Lord, was three score cubites long, and twentie broade, and thirtie cubites hie.
Ezekiel 40:1, Ezekiel 40:41, Ezekiel 41:1, Ezekiel 41:15, Ezekiel 40:1
3And the porch before the Temple of the house was twentie cubites long according to the breadth of the house, and ten cubites broade before the house.
John 10:23, 2 Chronicles 3:3, 2 Chronicles 3:4, Acts 3:10, Acts 3:11
4And in the house he made windowes, broad without, and narrowe within.
Ezekiel 40:16, Ezekiel 40:16, Ezekiel 41:26, Ezekiel 41:16, Ezekiel 41:26
5And by the wall of the house hee made galleries round about, euen by the walles of the house round about the Temple and the oracle, and made chambers round about.
1 Kings 6:16, 1 Kings 6:16, Psalms 28:2, 1 Kings 6:31, 2 Chronicles 5:9
6The nethermost gallerie was fiue cubites broade, and the middlemost sixe cubites broade, and the third seuen cubites broade: for he made restes round about without the house, that the beames should not be fastened in the walles of the house.
7And when the house was built, it was built of stone perfite, before it was brought, so that there was neither hammer, nor axe, nor any toole of yron heard in the house, while it was in building.
Deuteronomy 27:5, Deuteronomy 27:6, Deuteronomy 27:5, Deuteronomy 27:6, 1 Peter 2:5
8The doore of the middle chamber was in the right side of the house, and men went vp with winding stayres into the middlemost, and out of the middlemost into the third.
Ezekiel 41:6, Ezekiel 41:7, Ezekiel 41:6, Ezekiel 41:7
9So he built the house and finished it, and sieled the house being vawted with sieling of cedar trees.
1 Kings 6:14, 1 Kings 6:38, 1 Kings 6:14, 1 Kings 6:38
10And he built the galleries vpon al the wall of the house of fiue cubites height, and they were ioyned to the house with beames of cedar.
11And the worde of the Lord came to Salomon, saying,
12Cocerning this house which thou buildest, if thou wilt walke in mine ordinances, and execute my iudgements, and keepe al my commadements, to walke in them, then will I performe vnto thee my promise, which I promised to Dauid thy father.
1 Chronicles 22:10, 1 Chronicles 22:10, Colossians 1:23, Colossians 1:23, Psalms 132:12
13And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and wil not forsake my people Israel.
Deuteronomy 31:6, Deuteronomy 31:6, Exodus 25:8, Exodus 25:8, Hebrews 13:5
14So Salomon built the house and finished it,
1 Kings 6:38, 1 Kings 6:9, 1 Kings 6:38, 1 Kings 6:9, Acts 7:47
15And built the walles of the house within, with boards of cedar tree from the pauement of the house vnto the walles of the sieling, and within he couered them with wood, and couered the floore of the house with planks of firre.
1 Kings 7:7, 1 Kings 7:7
16And he built twentie cubites in the sides of the house with boards of cedar, from the floore to the walles, and he prepared a place within it for the oracle, euen the most holy place.
1 Kings 8:6, 2 Chronicles 3:8, 1 Kings 8:6, 2 Chronicles 3:8, Leviticus 16:2
17But the house, that is, the Temple before it, was fourtie cubites long.
18And the cedar of the house within was carued with knops, and grauen with floures: all was cedar, so that no stone was seene.
1 Kings 7:24, 1 Kings 7:24
19Also he prepared the place of the oracle in the mids of the house within, to set the Arke of the couenant of the Lord there.
Exodus 40:20, Exodus 40:21, 1 Kings 6:16, 1 Kings 6:5, 2 Chronicles 5:7
20And the place of the oracle within was twentie cubites long, and twentie cubites broad, and twentie cubites hie, and hee couered it with pure golde, and couered the altar with cedar.
1 Kings 6:2, 1 Kings 6:3, 1 Kings 6:22, 1 Kings 7:48, Exodus 30:1
21So Salomon couered the house within with pure golde: and he shut the place of the oracle with chaines of gold, and couered it with golde.
Exodus 26:32, Exodus 26:33, Exodus 36:34, Exodus 26:29, 1 Kings 6:5
22And he ouerlayde all the house with gold, vntill all the house was made perfite. also he couered the whole altar, that was before the oracle, with golde.

24The wing also of the one Cherub was fiue cubites, and the wing of the other Cherub was fiue cubites: from the vttermost part of one of his wings vnto the vttermost part of the other of his wings, were ten cubites.
25Also the other Cherub was of ten cubites: both the Cherubims were of one measure and one sise.
26For the height of the one Cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other Cherub.
27And he put the Cherubims within the inner house, and the Cherubims stretched out their wings, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other Cherub touched the other wall: and their other wings touched one another in the middes of the house.
Exodus 37:9, Exodus 25:20, Exodus 37:9, Exodus 25:20, 2 Chronicles 5:8
28And he ouerlaied the Cherubims with golde.
29And he carued all the walles of the house round about with grauen figures of Cherubims and of Palmetrees, and grauen flowres within and without.
1 Kings 6:32, 1 Kings 6:32, Exodus 36:8, Revelation 5:11, Revelation 5:14
30And the floore of the house hee couered with golde within and without.

31And in the entring of the oracle he made two doores of oliue tree: and the vpper post and side postes were fiue square.
Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 10:20, Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 10:20, John 14:6
32The two doores also were of oliue tree, and he graued them with grauing of Cherubims and palme trees, and grauen floures, and couered them with golde, and layed thin golde vpon the Cherubims and vpon the palme trees.
1 Kings 6:18, 1 Kings 6:29, 1 Kings 6:18, 1 Kings 6:29
33And so made he for the doore of the Temple, postes of oliue tree foure square.
34But the two doores were of firre tree, the two sides of the one doore were round, and the two sides of the other doore were round.
Ezekiel 41:23, Ezekiel 41:25, Ezekiel 41:23, Ezekiel 41:25, 1 Kings 5:8
