1 Kings 6:5 in Context — 1 Kings 6

3 Y el pórtico delante del templo de la casa, de veinte codos de largo, según la anchura de la casa, y su ancho [era] de diez codos delante de la casa.

4 E hizo á la casa ventanas anchas [por de dentro], y estrechas [por de fuera].

5 Edificó también junto al muro de la casa aposentos alrededor, contra las paredes de la casa en derredor del templo y del oráculo: é hizo cámaras alrededor.

6 El aposento de abajo era de cinco codos de ancho, y el de en medio de seis codos de ancho, y el tercero de siete codos de ancho: porque por de fuera había hecho disminuciones á la casa en derredor, para no trabar [las vigas] de las paredes de la casa.

7 Y la casa cuando se edificó, fabricáronla de piedras que traían ya acabadas; de tal manera que cuando la edificaban, ni martillos ni hachas se oyeron en la casa, ni ningún otro instrumento de hierro.
