For the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive wood: the lintel [and] door posts were a fifth part [of the wall].
So [he made] two doors of olive wood; and he carved on them carvings of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread the gold on the cherubim, and on the palm trees.
So also made he for the entrance of the temple door posts of olive wood, out of a fourth part [of the wall];
