Kinh Thánh Bản Truyền Thống ⇄ NET Bible
In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites left Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, during the month Ziv (the second month), he began building the Lord’s temple.
The temple King Solomon built for the Lord was 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high.
The porch in front of the main hall of the temple was 30 feet long, corresponding to the width of the temple. It was 15 feet wide, extending out from the front of the temple.
He made framed windows for the temple.
He built an extension all around the walls of the temple’s main hall and holy place and constructed side rooms in it.
The bottom floor of the extension was seven and a half feet wide, the middle floor nine feet wide, and the third floor ten and a half feet wide. He made ledges on the temple’s outer walls so the beams would not have to be inserted into the walls.
ApprofondimentoXây dựng trong im lặng — Các tảng đá được đẽo sẵn tại mỏ đá, nên không nghe thấy tiếng dụng cụ sắt tại công trường xây dựng. Sự im lặng này tượng trưng cho sự bình an và kính sợ, trái ngược với tiếng ồn của chiến tranh và vang vọng lời hứa về sự yên nghỉ của Đức Chúa Trời cho Y-sơ-ra-ên.As the temple was being built, only stones shaped at the quarry were used; the sound of hammers, pickaxes, or any other iron tool was not heard at the temple while it was being built.
The entrance to the bottom level of side rooms was on the south side of the temple; stairs went up to the middle floor and then on up to the third floor.
He finished building the temple and covered it with rafters and boards made of cedar.
He built an extension all around the temple; it was seven and a half feet high and it was attached to the temple by cedar beams.
The Lord said to Solomon:
ApprofondimentoLời hứa có điều kiện — Lời hứa của Đức Chúa Trời sẽ ngự với Y-sơ-ra-ên được gắn liền với sự vâng lời. Đền thờ không phải là sự đảm bảo về sự hiện diện của Đức Chúa Trời nếu không có sự trung tín – một chủ đề vang vọng xuyên suốt Cựu Ước và được hoàn thành trong Đấng Christ, là đền thờ thật.“As for this temple you are building, if you follow my rules, observe my regulations, and obey all my commandments, I will fulfill through you the promise I made to your father David.
I will live among the Israelites and will not abandon my people Israel.”
So Solomon finished building the temple.
He constructed the walls inside the temple with cedar planks; he paneled the inside with wood from the floor of the temple to the rafters of the ceiling. He covered the temple floor with boards made from the wood of evergreens.
ApprofondimentoNơi Chí Thánh — "Nơi Chí Thánh" là căn phòng bên trong cùng, nơi Hòm Giao Ước ngự. Chỉ có thầy tế lễ thượng phẩm mới được vào, mỗi năm một lần, vào Ngày Chuộc Tội. Không gian này tượng trưng cho sự hiện diện thánh khiết của Đức Chúa Trời giữa dân Ngài.He built a wall 30 feet in from the rear of the temple as a partition for an inner sanctuary that would be the most holy place. He paneled the wall with cedar planks from the floor to the rafters.
The main hall in front of the inner sanctuary was 60 feet long.
The inside of the temple was all cedar and was adorned with carvings of round ornaments and of flowers in bloom. Everything was cedar; no stones were visible.
He prepared the inner sanctuary inside the temple so that the ark of the covenant of the Lord could be placed there.
The inner sanctuary was 30 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 30 feet high. He plated it with gold, as well as the cedar altar.
Solomon plated the inside of the temple with gold. He hung golden chains in front of the inner sanctuary and plated the inner sanctuary with gold.
He plated the entire inside of the temple with gold, as well as the altar inside the inner sanctuary.
ApprofondimentoChê-ru-bim — Đây không phải là những thiên thần dễ thương mà là những sinh vật uy nghi có cánh, đại diện cho những kẻ canh giữ ngai vàng của Đức Chúa Trời. Đôi cánh của chúng vươn dài khắp Nơi Chí Thánh, vang vọng hình ảnh chê-ru-bim trên nắp Chuộc Tội của hòm giao ước và chỉ về vinh quang thiên đàng của Đức Chúa Trời.In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubs of olive wood; each stood 15 feet high.
Each of the first cherub’s wings was seven and a half feet long; its entire wingspan was 15 feet.
The second cherub also had a wingspan of 15 feet; it was identical to the first in measurements and shape.
Each cherub stood 15 feet high.
He put the cherubs in the inner sanctuary of the temple. Their wings were spread out. One of the first cherub’s wings touched one wall and one of the other cherub’s wings touched the opposite wall. The first cherub’s other wing touched the second cherub’s other wing in the middle of the room.
He plated the cherubs with gold.
On all the walls around the temple, inside and out, he carved cherubs, palm trees, and flowers in bloom.
He plated the floor of the temple with gold, inside and out.
He made doors of olive wood at the entrance to the inner sanctuary; the pillar on each doorpost was five-sided.
On the two doors made of olive wood he carved cherubs, palm trees, and flowers in bloom, and he plated them with gold. He plated the cherubs and the palm trees with hammered gold.
In the same way he made doorposts of olive wood for the entrance to the main hall, only with four-sided pillars.
He also made two doors out of wood from evergreens; each door had two folding leaves.
He carved cherubs, palm trees, and flowers in bloom and plated them with gold, leveled out over the carvings.
He built the inner courtyard with three rows of chiseled stones and a row of cedar beams.
In the month Ziv of the fourth year of Solomon’s reign the foundation was laid for the Lord’s temple.
ApprofondimentoBảy năm — Đền thờ mất bảy năm để xây dựng – một con số tượng trưng cho sự trọn vẹn và giao ước. Điều này phản ánh bảy ngày tạo dựng, gợi ý rằng đền thờ là một trật tự thờ phượng mới và nơi ngự của Đức Chúa Trời trên đất.In the eleventh year, in the month Bul (the eighth month) the temple was completed in accordance with all its specifications and blueprints. It took seven years to build.
