Verse 31 is found in chapter 6 of 1 Kings. The walls, doors, and interior spaces receive decorations of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, while the entire work takes seven years. The repeated vegetation and heavenly elements create a symbolic atmosphere of life and order. The duration of the construction also communicates the magnitude of the project. The temple is not an improvised structure, but the result of prolonged and carefully executed work.
