‏ 1 Kings 6:5-6

v. 5–6: The temple had side rooms or chambers for the priests and for storing the holy things (1 Kings 6:5–6 a). Solomon made sure the building was not only beautiful, but also practical and well-organized. The beams were not fastened into the walls, so the strength of the building was not weakened. In the same way, the church should not lose its strength for the sake of convenience or appearance.
