[3:6]  ¹ tn Heb “and he plated the house [with] precious stone for beauty, and the gold was the gold of Parvaim.”

[3:6]  sn The location of Parvaim, the source of the gold for Solomon’s temple, is uncertain. Some have identified it with modern Farwa in Yemen; others relate it to the Sanskrit parvam and understand it to be a general term for the regions east of Palestine.
