36 He built the inner courtyard+ with three rows of hewn stone and a row of cedar beams.+

9 Then he made the courtyard+ of the priests+ and the great court*+ and the doors for the court, and he overlaid their doors with copper.

7 Then Solʹo·mon sanctified the middle of the courtyard that was before the house of Jehovah, for there he had to offer up the burnt offerings+ and the fat pieces of the communion sacrifices, because the copper altar+ that Solʹo·mon had made could not contain the burnt sacrifices, the grain offerings,+ and the fat pieces.+
