Read the Story

Solomon began to build God's house. It was made of stone and cedar wood. The stones were cut before they came. No hammer was heard there.

God spoke to Solomon. God said that if Solomon obeyed, He would live among His people. God would not leave them.

Inside, the walls had cedar wood. Gold covered the walls. There were angels called cherubim. There were palm trees and flowers carved in wood. It took seven years to build.
