1 Kings 7:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:8

And his house where he dwelt
Which was properly his dwellingplace, that part of the house where he usually resided:

[had] another court within the porch, which [was] of the like work;
a court between that and the porch, called the inner court, ( 2 Kings 20:4 ) .

Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken to
wife;
see ( 1 Kings 3:1 ) ,

like unto this porch:
being built of the same sort of materials, though in a different form.
