1 Reyes 6:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 6:16

And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house
At the end or extremity of it, as the Targum; that is, he built the most holy place, which was twenty two cubits long, at the end of the holy place, which he wainscotted as the other:

both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar;
or from the floor, including that, to the walls on each side, from wall to wall, and taking in them, they were all lined with cedar wood:

he even built [them] for it within, [even] for the oracle, [even] for
the most holy [place];
which explains what building is spoken of, and that the inside of that was covered with cedar from bottom to top.

1 Reyes 6:16 In-Context

14 Salom贸n, pues, edific贸 la casa y la termin贸.
15 Luego construy贸 las paredes de la casa por dentro con tablas de cedro; desde el suelo de la casa hasta el techo recubri贸 las paredes interiores de madera; recubri贸 tambi茅n el piso de la casa con tablas de cipr茅s.
16 Edific贸 los veinte codos del fondo de la casa con tablas de cedro desde el suelo hasta el techo; as铆 le edific贸 el santuario interior, el lugar sant铆simo.
17 La casa, es decir, la nave delante del santuario interior ten铆a cuarenta codos de largo.
18 Y por dentro la casa estaba revestida de cedro tallado en forma de calabazas y flores; todo era cedro, no se ve铆a la piedra.
