10. He built an extension all around the temple; it was seven and a half feet high and it was attached to the temple by cedar beams.
11. The Lord said to Solomon:
12. “As for this temple you are building, if you follow my rules, observe my regulations, and obey all my commandments, I will fulfill through you the promise I made to your father David.
13. I will live among the Israelites and will not abandon my people Israel.”
14. So Solomon finished building the temple.
15. 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.
16. 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.
17. The main hall in front of the inner sanctuary was 60 feet long.
