Solomon also appointed twelve governors over all of Israel, each of whom were responsible for providing one month's food provisions to the king and to his administration during each year.

His officers supplied provisions for King Solomon and for everyone who visited King Solomon's palace, each in their respective month of service responsibility. Nothing ever ran out.

They also provided barley and straw for the horses and camels to their respective locations, each consistent with their responsibilities.

Inside the inner sanctuary Solomon placed two cherubim crafted from olive wood, each ten cubits high.

Each wing of one cherub was five cubits long, and each wing of the other cherub was five cubits long, so that the distance from the end of one wing to the end of the other wing was ten cubits.

Each cherub was ten cubits high, and both were of the same size and shape,

Solomon placed the cherubim in the middle of the inner sanctuary, with their wings spread in such a way that the wing of one was touching the one wall and the opposite wing of the other cherub was touching the opposite wall. Furthermore, their wings in the center of the wall were touching each other wing-to-wing.

Each cherub was overlaid with gold.

with three rows of framed windows facing each other in three ranks.

All the doorways and doorposts had rectangular frames, with the doorways facing each other in three tiers.

He fashioned two bronze pillars, each one eighteen cubits high, with a circumference of twelve cubits.

A network of latticework on top of the pillars was inlaid with ornamental wreaths and chains, the top of each pillar containing seven groups of ornamental structures.

The pillars contained two rows of ornaments shaped like pomegranates around the latticework covering the top of each pillar.

The capitals on top of each pillar above the rounded latticework contained four cubits of lily designs,

Hiram also made ten bronze water carts. Each one was four cubits wide, four cubits long, and three cubits high.

Each cart had four bronze wheels equipped with bronze axles with four support feet. Beneath the basin were cast support structures made like wreaths on each side.

The opening to each water cart inside the crown on top was one cubit wide, with engravings on the opening. The borders to the frames surrounding the opening were square, not round.

The four wheels were placed underneath the borders, and the axles for the wheels were on the stand. Each wheel stood one and a half cubits high.

Four supports stood at the four corners of each cart, built into the carts themselves.

On top of each stand was a circular structure one half of one cubit high, with its braces and support frames integral with it, forming a single piece.

Hiram also fashioned ten bronze basins, each holding about 40 baths, each basin measuring four cubits in diameter, with one basin for each stand.

King Solomon made 200 large shields of beaten gold, overlaying each large shield with the gold from 600 gold pieces,

Six steps led up to the throne, which had a round canopy fastened to the rear of the throne and armrests on each side of the seat and two lions standing on either side of each armrest.

Elijah took twelve stones, one for each of the tribes of Jacob's descendants, to whom the message from the LORD had come that "Israel is to be your name."

Each man struck down his opponent, and the Arameans ran away with Israel in pursuit. King Ben-hadad of Aram escaped on horseback with the help of his cavalry.

Now the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah were each sitting on their respective thrones, arrayed in their robes, on the threshing floor at the entrance to the city gate of Samaria, and all of the prophets were prophesying in front of them.
