Solomon's Temple Drawings
Four reconstruction drawings of Solomon’s Temple, which show the layout of the Temple.
1. An isometric reconstruction drawing of Solomon’s Temple with the Holy of Holies built on The Rock and therefore this is the first reconstruction drawing using archaeological evidence (1 Kings 6.1-35).
2. An East-West Section through Solomon’s Temple, looking north, showing the side chambers, the Holy of Holies built on The Rock with the Emplacement of the Ark, the Holy Place and the Porch (1 Kings 6.1-35; 8.1-8,21).
3. The Holy of Holies with the Ark of the Covenant below two massive Cherubim (1 Kings 6.23-28; 8.1-8). Next to the Ark is the Deuteronomy Scroll (Deut. 31.26; 2Chr. 34:14,15).
4. A Plan and Section of Solomon’s Temple. The Plan shows (from left to right) the two pillars, Yachin and Boaz, the Porch, the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies. The measurements in cubits is based on 1 Kings 6.2. This sanctuary is surrounded on three sides with side chambers. The Section through the Holy Place shows the ledges in the walls (1 Kings 6.5,6), so that the upper chamber was wider than the two below.
