He constructed the walls inside the temple with cedar planks; he paneled the inside with wood from the floor of the temple to the rafters of the ceiling. He covered the temple floor with boards made from the wood of evergreens.

He built an extension all around the walls of the temple’s main hall and holy place and constructed side rooms in it.

The entrance to the bottom level of side rooms was on the south side of the temple; stairs went up to the middle floor and then on up to the third floor.

He built a wall 30 feet in from the rear of the temple as a partition for an inner sanctuary that would be the most holy place. He paneled the wall with cedar planks from the floor to the rafters.

He also made two doors out of wood from evergreens; each door had two folding leaves.

The roof above the beams supported by the pillars was also made of cedar; there were forty-five beams, fifteen per row.
