1 Kings 7:9

All these were of costly stones
Marble, porphyry, &c.

according to the measure of hewed stones, sawed with saws, within and
without;
they were all hewed, and squared, and polished, and so they appeared both on the inside of the building, and without:

even from the foundation unto the coping;
from the bottom to the top:

and so on the outside toward the great court:
where the people used to assemble when they had causes to be tried, and was adjoining to the king's house.
