First Kings 7:9-13

⁹These buildings were adorned with costly hewn stones, precisely measured and cut with a saw and smoothed on all sides. These stones were used from the foundation to the stones on top, and also on the outside to the great court.

¹⁰The foundation was constructed with very large, costly stones of eight and ten cubits in length.

¹¹Above were costly hewn stones precisely cut to size, and cedar beams.

¹²The great courtyard surrounding the palace had three rows of cut stone and a row of cedar beams like the courtyard of the temple of Yahweh and the temple portico.

¹³King Solomon sent for Huram and brought him from Tyre.
