The king made a large throne decorated with ivory and overlaid it with pure gold.

He decorated the temple with precious stones; the gold he used came from Parvaim.

In the most holy place he made two images of cherubim and plated them with gold.

He made the courtyard of the priests and the large enclosure and its doors; he plated their doors with bronze.

The porch in front of the main hall was 30 feet long, corresponding to the width of the temple, and its height was 30 feet. He plated the inside with pure gold.
