1 Kings 6:7-9

New International Version

⁷ In building the temple, only blocks dressed^(A) at the quarry were used, and no hammer, chisel or any other iron tool^(B) was heard at the temple site while it was being built.

⁸ The entrance to the lowest^[a] floor was on the south side of the temple; a stairway led up to the middle level and from there to the third. ⁹ So he built the temple and completed it, roofing it with beams and cedar^(C) planks.
