1 Kings 6:7 in Context — 1 Kings 6

5 Edificou também junto ao muro da casa aposentos ao redor, contra as paredes da casa em derredor do templo e do compartimento interno: e fez câmaras ao redor.

6 O aposento de abaixo era de cinco côvados de largura, e o de em meio de seis côvados de largura, e o terceiro de sete côvados de largura: porque por de fora havia feito apoios à casa em derredor, para não introduzir as vigas nas paredes da casa.

7 E a casa quando se edificou, fabricaram-na de pedras que traziam já acabadas; de tal maneira que quando a edificavam, nem martelos nem machados se ouviram na casa, nem nenhum outro instrumento de ferro.

8 A porta do aposento de em meio estava ao lado direito da casa: e subia-se por um caracol ao de em meio, e do aposento de em meio ao terceiro.

9 Lavrou, pois, a casa, e acabou-a; e cobriu a casa com artesanatos de cedro.
