2The house which Solomon made for the Lord was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.
3The covered way before the Temple of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and ten cubits wide in front of the house.
4And for the house he made windows, with network across.
5And against the walls all round, and against the walls of the Temple and of the inmost room, he put up wings, with side rooms all round:
6The lowest line of them being five cubits wide, the middle six cubits wide and the third seven cubits; for there was a space all round the outside walls of the house so that the boards supporting the rooms did not have to be fixed in the walls of the house.
7(And the stones used in the building of the house were squared at the place where they were cut out; there was no sound of hammer or axe or any iron instrument while they were building the house.)
8The door to the lowest side rooms was in the right side of the house; and they went up by twisting steps into the middle rooms, and from the middle into the third.
