2 Chronicles 3

שׁלמה begins building the בֵּית YHWH in יְרוּשָׁלַם on הַר הַמּוֹרִיָה, using precise measurements and materials as instructed by דָּוִיד his father. He constructs the הֵיכָל הַגָּדוֹל, the בֵּית הַקֹּדֶשׁ, the בֵּית הַפְּנִימִי with כְּרוּבִים, and adorns everything with זָהָב טָהוֹר and intricate carvings.
