Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 1532 Temple Drawings

The next morning, the six professors got up very early. After all, there were too many surprises waiting for them, but they couldn't waste even a little time. Especially the two Jewish scholars, although they chatted very late last night, they still feel full of energy this morning. The main reason is that they are too excited and it is impossible to let them rest; they may even fall out with you!

It’s about Solomon’s Temple, the highest-level building in the hearts of the Jews. Now that the golden ark has been found, other holy objects should also be here. You must search carefully and never miss any detail.

Bao Zixuan couldn't say much about this, after all, these people were working for him. You can't dampen people's enthusiasm. There's no need to feel unhappy.

In this way, the six experts got up early every morning to work; they started over and over again, never being lazy. With in-depth understanding and continuous discovery, Persian and Arabic antiquities have basically been cleared up. After all, although there are many cultural relics from the two nations, in terms of importance, they are more than one level behind Solomon's Temple.

As expected of top experts, they classified each cultural relic; the records were very detailed, and they even included the year and provenance. It can be said that these cultural relics now have identification certificates. Although it is not officially issued, given their influence in the world, most countries and individuals will definitely recognize it.

As for the two Jewish experts, although they work longer hours every day than the other four, there are so many cultural relics that it will definitely be unreasonable to complete them in a short time. As for their work, they are even more serious than teaching in school, and they dare not be careless at all. After all, every cultural relic is of vital importance in the hearts of the entire Jewish people.

Several large gold medals appeared in front of everyone, and they were called gold medals; in fact, it might be more appropriate to call them gold medals. After all, each gold piece is less than one centimeter thick but covers an area of ​​more than 0.5 square meters. And each piece is engraved with very beautiful patterns and words, which looks like a puzzle.

Bao Zixuan also lamented that 3,000 years ago, Jews mastered such skills. Even though gold is very malleable, there were no large-scale processing tools at that time; it could only be made by craftsmen by hand, which was as difficult as you can imagine.

30 pieces of gold appeared in front of everyone, and they couldn't care about that much now. They must put them together first to see. Although he didn't want to involve other people, he knew that problems could easily arise if the soldiers from Fucaira were asked to help. How can I say that the other four people are all top cultural relic experts. Although I don’t know that much about Jewish cultural relics, the methods of disposal are similar.

Know what to pay attention to so as not to destroy cultural relics.

The experts were different, and soon 30 gold pieces were spliced ​​together.

After seeing the pattern, everyone felt incredible. A majestic palace appeared in front of everyone. And not only are the patterns exquisite, but the most important dimensions are also marked in great detail. It can be said that this is not a picture at all, it is simply a construction drawing.

With these gold pieces, it is possible to build the palace in front of you one to one.

Holway, as a top expert in ancient Jewish architecture, looked at the pattern and started thinking.

First of all, we must study the text, ancient Hebrew; the two most proficient people in the world are here at this time.

Holway began to translate the text on the gold tablets, and also read out: "Four hundred and eighty years after the Israelites left Egypt, in the month of Ziv, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, work began to build the temple of the Lord. King Solomon built the house of the Lord for the Lord. The temple he built was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high. The porch in front of the temple was twenty cubits long, as wide as the temple, and ten cubits wide. They also made tight window latticework for the temple. The palace wall surrounded the outer temple and the inner temple, and three levels of side rooms were built; the lower level was five cubits wide, the middle level was six cubits wide, and the upper level was seven cubits wide. The beams of the outer side rooms were placed on the sills of the temple wall to prevent them from digging into the palace wall."

"The temple was built using stones hewn from the mountains. When the temple was being built, the sound of hammers, axes, and other iron tools was not heard. There is a door in the side room on the right side of the temple, and there is a spiral staircase inside the door. You can go up Go to the second floor, and from the second floor you can go up to the third floor. Solomon built the temple, placed cedar beams, and covered them with cedar boards. He built side rooms next to the temple, each floor five cubits high, made of cedar wood. The pillars are resting on the ridge of the palace wall."

“Make two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high, and place them in the inner sanctuary. The one cherub has two wings, each five cubits long, ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other wing; The wings of the cherubim were also ten cubits, and the size and shape of the two cherubim were the same.”

"The walls around the inner and outer temples were carved with cherubim, palm trees, and first-blooming flowers. The floors of the inner and outer temples were overlaid with gold. The doors and lintels of the inner hall were made of olive wood. The door frame; one-fifth of the wall at the entrance. On the two door leaves of olive wood were carved cherubim, palm trees, and first blooming flowers, and they were overlaid with gold. They also made the door frames of the outer temple of olive wood, and the doorway. A quarter with a wall.”

"Make two doors of pine wood. The one door has two leaves and is folded; the other door has two leaves and is also folded. On them are engraved cherubim, palm trees, and first blooming flowers, and they are overlaid with gold. He also built the inner court with three layers of hewn stones and one layer of cedar wood. In the month of Ziph, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign, he laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD. In the eleventh year, in the month of Bull, the temple and all that belonged to it were built. They were all created according to their pattern.”

"Solomon built himself a palace, which he completed in thirteen years. He also built the Temple of Lebanon, which was a hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high. It had three rows of cedar pillars, and cedar beams on the pillars. It is covered with cedar wood, with fifteen pillars in each row, forty-five in total. There are three floors of windows, facing each other."

“All the doorframes were of thick wood and square, with three levels of windows facing each other. And he built a porch with pillars, fifty cubits long and thirty cubits wide; and in front of this porch was a porch with pillars and steps outside it. . And he built a gallery, and set up the seat of judgment in it, and the gallery was covered with cedar wood from the ground to the top. Solomon also built a palace for the daughter of Pharaoh whom he married, and he did the same thing as this gallery.”

“The stones used in building all this are precious, hewn to measure, and sawn neatly inside and out, from the foundation to the eaves, and from the outside to the courtyard. The foundation is a precious stone. Stones, some ten cubits long and some eight cubits long; on them were cedar wood and precious stones hewn to measure. Around the great court were three tiers of hewn stones and one tier of cedar wood, according to the interior of the house of the LORD. The style of the courtyard and palace corridors.”

“And he made two pillars of bronze, each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference; and he made two capitals of bronze, and put them on the pillars, each five cubits high. On the capitals they were decorated with lattices and twisted Chains, seven on each cap. Around the net were two rows of pomegranates covering the capitals, on both capitals. The capitals of the porch, four cubits in diameter, were carved with lilies. The bells of the two capitals were bordered by nets. Each of them is surrounded by two rows of pomegranates, and there are two hundred in the two rows."

"Two pillars stood at the front of the porch: the one on the right, and he named it Jachin; and the one on the left, and he named it Boaz. On the tops of the pillars were lilies."

"And he made a bronze sea, the shape of which was round, five cubits high, ten cubits in diameter, and thirty cubits in circumference. Under the edge of the sea, around it were the shapes of wild melons, ten melons per cubit, in two rows, when he made the sea. It was cast. There were twelve bronze oxen carrying the sea: three to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east. The sea was on the oxen, with their tails facing inward. The sea was a hand thick, and its sides were like The rim of the cup is also like a lily, which can hold two thousand pieces."

“Make ten basin bases of bronze, each one four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high. This is how they were made: with a heart on the four sides, and the heart in the middle of the sides, and the lion and the ox on the heart, and the cherubim. There is a small base on the side, and there are hanging necklaces under the lions and oxen. Each basin base has four bronze wheels and copper axes. On the four corners of the small base, under the basin, there are cast basin stands, and there are necklaces beside them."

"The base is one cubit high, with a round mouth like a base, one and a half cubits in diameter, with carvings on the mouth, and a square heart. Four wheels are below the heart, with their axles connected to the base. Each wheel is one and a half cubits high. The shape of the wheel is like a wheel; the axle, rim, spokes, and hub are all cast. At the four corners of each seat are basin frames, which are cast together with the base. On the base is a round frame, half a cubit high; on the base are braces. The son and the heart are cast together with the base.”

"And on the staves and on the heart were carved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, and around them were necklaces. The bases of the ten basins were like this, of the same make, size, and pattern. And he made ten basins of bronze, one for each basin. There was room for forty people. The basins were four cubits in diameter. One basin was placed on each of the ten seats. Five were placed on the right side of the palace door, and five were placed on the left side of the palace door. They also placed the sea at the door of the palace. To the right is the south."

"Solomon also made the golden altars for the temple of the LORD, and the golden tables for the showbread; and the gold lampstands in front of the inner temple: five on the right and five on the left, with their gold flowers, their lamps, their wax scissors, and their pure gold cups, The plates, the tweezers, the spoons, the fire cauldron, and the hinges of the doors of the Holy of Holies, the inner temple, and the hinges of the outer temple.”
