Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for building the temple. {\cf2\super [305]} Those plans were also for the porch around the temple, and for its buildings, its storerooms, its upper rooms, its inside rooms, and for the place for the mercy seat. {\cf2\super [306]}
{\cf2\super [323]} The man measured the faces of all the side walls, including the side walls on either side of the porch at the courtyard. The total was 60 cubits. {\cf2\super [324]}
There were small windows {\cf2\super [326]} above all the guard rooms, the side walls, and the porch. The wide part of the windows faced into the gateway. There were carvings of palm trees on the walls that were on either side of the gateway.
This gateway, its three rooms on each side, and its porch all measured the same as the first gate. The gateway was 50 cubits {\cf2\super [328]} long and 25 cubits {\cf2\super [329]} wide.
