1 Kings 7:2

7:2 He named ¹  it “The Palace of the Lebanon Forest”; ²  it was 150 feet ³  long, 75 feet ⁴  wide, and 45 feet ⁵  high. It had four rows of cedar pillars and cedar beams above the pillars.

1 Kings 7:32

7:32 The four wheels were under the frames and the crossbars of the axles were connected to the stand. Each wheel was two and one-quarter feet ⁶  high.

[7:2]  ¹ tn Heb “he built.”

[7:2]  ² sn The Palace of the Lebanon Forest. This name was appropriate because of the large amount of cedar, undoubtedly brought from Lebanon, used in its construction. The cedar pillars in the palace must have given it the appearance of a forest.

[7:2]  ³ tn Heb “one hundred cubits.”

[7:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “fifty cubits.”

[7:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “thirty cubits.”

[7:32]  ⁶ tn Heb “a cubit-and-a-half” (a cubit was a unit of measure roughly equivalent to 18 inches or 45 cm).
