Introduction
Solomon builds his own house, and completes it in thirteen years, 1 Kings 7:1 . He builds another called the house of the forest of Lebanon; and a house for Pharaoh's daughter, 1 Kings 7:2-12 . He brings Hiram, a coppersmith, out of Tyre, who makes much curious work for the temple, 1 Kings 7:13-20 . He makes the two pillars Jachin and Boaz, 1 Kings 7:21 , 1 Kings 7:22 . The molten sea, and the twelve oxen that bare it, 1 Kings 7:23-26 . And ten brazen bases, and the ten lavers with pots, shovels, and basons, all of which he cast in the plain of Jordan, vv. 27-46. The quantity of brass too great to be weighed; and the vessels of the temple were all of pure gold, 1 Kings 7:47-50 . Solomon brings into the house the silver and gold which his father had dedicated, 1 Kings 7:51 .
