CHAP. VI. all. And VII. from vers. 13. to the end. 2 CHRON. III; IV.

[World 2993] [Solomon 4] THE foundation of the Temple laid on Mount Moriah, where Isaac had [Solomon 5] been offered: It is said, That the foundation of the house of the Lord was [Solomon 6] laid in Solomons fourth year, in the month Zif, or the second month, and in the eleventh year in the month Bul (which is the eighth month) it was finished, and [Solomon 7] [Solomon 8] so was he seven years in building it. It was exactly seven years and six months [Solomon 9] in building, but the odd six months are omitted for roundness of the sum, as [Solomon 10] the six odd months are of Davids reigning in Hebron. Compare 1 King. 2. 11 with 2 Sam. 5. 5.

Now the beginning of the seventh Chapter of 1 Kings relateth the Story of Solomons building his own house, before it come to mention the furniture of the Temple: because the Holy Ghost would mention all Solomons fabricks together: or the piles of his buildings before it come to speak of the fur∣niture of any.
