King Solomon's Choice for Timeless Structures

Story by: Gail Nobles
Imagine a time long ago when King Solomon decided to build a magnificent temple and a grand palace. To create these impressive structures, he turned to a special wood that was highly prized: cedar from the mountains of Lebanon. Now, why cedar? Well, this wood has some amazing qualities—it doesn’t rot easily and is resistant to pesky insects. This makes it a perfect choice for building something that needs to last a long time.
The cedars of Lebanon are known for their huge, tall trunks that grow straight and strong. These qualities made them ideal for constructing big beams and planks that could support Solomon's ambitious projects. In the Bible, there’s even a comparison that likens righteous people to these strong cedars, illustrating their long, stable, and productive lives rooted in God.
Psalm 92:12 states: The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
So, you can see, Solomon’s choice of cedar wasn’t just about building beautiful structures; it was about creating something enduring and strong—just like the values they wished to uphold in that great temple and palace.
You can read about King Solomon building the temple in first Kings chapters 5-8 and second Chronicles chapters 2-7.
