1 Kings
The account says the house was built with stone made ready before it was brought there (1 Kings 6:7). Because the materials were prepared beforehand, no hammer, axe, or iron tool was heard in the house while it was being built (1 Kings 6:7).
7The house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor ax nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
