The Building of the Temple

6 ^(A)Now it came about in the four hundred and eightieth year after the sons of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv which is the second month, that he ^[a]began to build the house of the Lord. ² As for the house which King Solomon built for the Lord, its length was sixty ^[b]cubits and its width twenty cubits and its height thirty cubits.
