1 KINGS 6:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
1 Kgs 6:191 Kgs 6:21
And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar.
"Now the inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high; and he overlaid it with pure gold." — The *perfect cube*: *u-megdat ha-dvir esrim amah u-esrim amah u-esrim amah...va-yichashu otah zahav tahor* (the inner sanctuary was twenty cubits in all dimensions, and he overlaid it with pure gold). The *cube* is the *perfect geometric form*, symbolizing *completeness* and *divine order*. The *pure gold* (*zahav tahor*) *covers the entire interior*—walls, ceiling, floor—creating a *shining, luminous space* that *radiates holiness* and *reflects divine glory*.
