1 Kings 6:8-10

Living Bible

⁸ The bottom floor of the side rooms was entered from the right side of the Temple, and there were winding stairs going up to the second floor; another flight of stairs led from the second to the third. ⁹ After completing the Temple, Solomon paneled it all, including the beams and pillars, with cedar. ¹⁰ As already stated, there was an annex on each side of the building, attached to the Temple walls by cedar timbers. Each story of the annex was 7-1/2 feet high.
