2 He began to build in the second month of the fourth year of his reign. 3 These are Solomon's (A)measurements[a] for building the house of God: (B)the length, in cubits[b] of the old standard, was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. 4 The vestibule in front of the nave of the house was twenty cubits long, equal to the width of the house,[c] and its height was 120 cubits. He overlaid it on the inside with pure gold.
