1 Raja-raja 7:2-3

7:2 He named ¹  it “The Palace of the Lebanon Forest”; ²  it was 150 feet ³  long, 75 feet ⁴  wide, and 45 feet ⁵  high. It had four rows of cedar pillars and cedar beams above the pillars. 7:3 The roof above the beams supported by the pillars was also made of cedar; there were forty-five beams, fifteen per row.

[7:2]  ¹ tn Heb “he built.”

[7:2]  ² sn The Palace of the Lebanon Forest. This name was appropriate because of the large amount of cedar, undoubtedly brought from Lebanon, used in its construction. The cedar pillars in the palace must have given it the appearance of a forest.

[7:2]  ³ tn Heb “one hundred cubits.”

[7:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “fifty cubits.”

[7:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “thirty cubits.”
