4. The porch in front of the Temple was 20 cubits long and 20 cubits high. He covered the inside of the porch with pure gold.
5. He put panels made of cypress wood on the walls of the larger room. Then he put pure gold over the cypress panels and then put pictures of palm trees and chains on the gold.
6. He put valuable stones in the Temple for beauty. The gold he used was gold from Parvaim.
7. He covered the inside of the Temple with the gold. He put the gold on the ceiling beams, doorposts, walls, and doors. He carved Cherub angels on the walls.
8. Then he made the Most Holy Place. This room was 20 cubits long and 20 cubits wide. It was as wide as the Temple was. He put pure gold on the walls of the Most Holy Place. The gold weighed about 22 1/2 tons.
9. The gold nails weighed 1 1/4 pounds. He covered the upper rooms with gold.
10. He made two Cherub angels to put in the Most Holy Place. The workers covered the Cherub angels with gold.
11. Each wing of the Cherub angels was 5 cubits long. The total length of the wings was 20 cubits. One wing of the first Cherub angel touched the wall on one side of the room. The other wing touched one wing of the second Cherub angel.
12. And the other wing of the second Cherub angel touched the wall on the other side of the room.
13. So the wings of the two Cherub angels together reached across the room—a total of 20 cubits. The Cherub angels stood facing the Holy Place.
14. He made the curtain from blue, purple, and red materials and expensive linen. There were Cherub angels on the curtain.
