1 Kings 6:7 in Context — 1 Kings 6
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.
8 La puerta del aposento de en medio estaba al lado derecho de la casa: y subíase por un caracol al de en medio, y del [aposento] de en medio al tercero.
9 Labró pues la casa, y acabóla; y cubrió la casa con artesonados de cedro.
