Solomon took thirteen years to build his own palace
(Some words not found in UHB: and=DOM house,his_own building Shəlomoh three teen year and=they_were_ended/finished DOM all/each/any/every house,his )
Solomon would have commanded his workers to do this work. Alternate translation: “It took Solomon’s workers thirteen years to build his palace”
palace
(Some words not found in UHB: and=DOM house,his_own building Shəlomoh three teen year and=they_were_ended/finished DOM all/each/any/every house,his )
If your language does not have a word for “palace,” you may translate this as “house” or “big house.”
7:1-12 Before describing the Temple’s furnishings, the writer mentions the construction of Solomon’s palace complex. The multiple buildings within this complex took nearly twice as long to build (thirteen years) as the Temple (seven years, 6:38). The entire building project took twenty years (9:10). Although construction details are brief, archaeological discovery of two of Solomon’s buildings provides an idea of how this palace might have looked. Despite its grandeur, Solomon’s palace is not the author’s focus; his interest is in the Temple, God’s dwelling place.
