Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk 1 Raja-raja 6:32

and he overlaid it from within with pure gold The inside of the Heichal, which was the greater house, he overlaid with gold, but not the vestibule, and he proceeds and delineates further how he did it. And the greater House He overlaid the entire House with pure gold. he overlaid with juniper wood - Heb. עֲצֵי בְרוֹשִּׁים. [This translation follows Yehuda Feliks, Nature & Man in the Bible, pp.110f.] For the entire House, the Debir and the Heichal, he first overlaid with juniper wood, and afterwards, “he overlaid it with fine gold” over the walls of juniper, and because of the overlaying of gold, with which he wished to overlay the House, he overlaid it first with wood in order that the gold would adhere firmly, for he would reinforce the gold with nails, with the decorations of the wood, for he made decorations in the wood. palm trees - Heb. תִּמּרִים. They are trees like a sort of palm trees and cherubim, and in I Kings (6:32) it is written: “and he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers (וּפְטוּרֵי צִצִּים),” like (Num. 17:23) “and it sprouted fruit (וַיָּצֵץ צִיץ)”. And פְטוּרֵי is like “A man frees (פּוֹטֵר) his wife (entwerfen in Middle High German). (From Rabbi Eliezer the son of Rabbi Meshullam of blessed memory.)

קלעים. According to Menachem these are curtains of sorts. They constituted a second division, separation between domains of different levels of sanctity. This word also occurs in this sense in Kings I 6,32 וקלע עליהם מקלעות כרובים, where it describes carvings of figurines in wood. Also in verse 18 of the same chapter in Kings we have the line מקלעת פקעים where it also means “carvings of gourds and calyxes.” I believe that the Torah tells us that the hanging curtains forming the outer wall of the courtyard also had figurines woven into their texture.
