Work on the Temple is Completed
16 And so Solomon completed all of the work, from the day that the foundation stone of the Lord’s Temple was laid[a] until the Lord’s Temple was completely finished. 17 After this, Solomon visited Ezion-geber and Elath at the seashore in the land of Edom. 18 Hiram sent Solomon[b] ships and servants who were expert mariners, and they sailed with Solomon’s servants to Ophir,[c] where they brought back 450 talents[d] of gold for Solomon.
