(1) And it took Solomon thirteen years to build his palace, until his whole palace was completed. (2) He built the Lebanon Forest House with four rows of cedar columns, and with hewn cedar beams above the columns. Its length was 100 cubits, its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits. (3) It was paneled above with cedar, with the planks that were above on the 45 columns—15 in each row. (4) And there were three rows of window frames, with three tiers of windows facing each other. (5) All the doorways and doorposts had square frames—with three tiers of windows facing each other. (6) He made the portico of columns 50 cubits long and 30 cubits wide; the portico was in front of [the columns], and there were columns with a canopy in front of them. (7) He made the throne portico, where he was to pronounce judgment—the Hall of Judgment. It was paneled with cedar from floor to floor.
