From the construction of altars to the grandeur of Solomon's Temple, buildings in the Bible often represent the intersection of divine presence and human endeavor.<br><br><b>Altars and Early Structures</b><br><br>The earliest references to buildings in the Bible often involve altars, which were simple structures made of earth or uncut stones. These altars were places of worship and sacrifice, marking significant encounters with God. For instance, Noah built an altar to the Lord after the flood (<a href="/genesis/8-20.htm">Genesis 8:20</a>), and Abraham constructed altars at various locations as he journeyed through the land promised to him (<a href="/genesis/12-7.htm">Genesis 12:7-8</a>; 13:18).<br><br><b>The Tabernacle</b><br><br>The Tabernacle, described in detail in the book of Exodus, was a portable sanctuary that served as the dwelling place of God among the Israelites during their wilderness wanderings. Its construction was commanded by God and executed with precision, as outlined in <a href="/bsb/exodus/25.htm">Exodus 25-31</a>. The Tabernacle was a tent-like structure with an outer court, a Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place, where the Ark of the Covenant was kept. It symbolized God's presence and guidance.<br><br><b>Solomon's Temple</b><br><br>One of the most significant buildings in the Bible is Solomon's Temple, also known as the First Temple. Constructed in Jerusalem, it was the permanent dwelling place for the Ark of the Covenant and the center of Israelite worship. The building of the Temple is detailed in <a href="/bsb/1_kings/6.htm">1 Kings 6-7</a> and <a href="/bsb/2_chronicles/3.htm">2 Chronicles 3-4</a>. Solomon's Temple was renowned for its grandeur and intricate design, reflecting the glory of God and the prosperity of Solomon's reign. The Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BC, marking a pivotal moment in Israel's history.<br><br><b>The Second Temple</b><br><br>After the Babylonian exile, the Jewish people returned to Jerusalem and rebuilt the Temple, known as the Second Temple. This construction was encouraged by the prophets Haggai and Zechariah and completed under the leadership of Zerubbabel (Ezra 3-6). Although less magnificent than Solomon's Temple, the Second Temple was central to Jewish worship until its destruction by the Romans in AD 70.<br><br><b>City Walls and Fortifications</b><br><br>Buildings in the Bible also include city walls and fortifications, which were crucial for protection and defense. The walls of Jericho, famously brought down by the Israelites under Joshua's leadership (Joshua 6), and the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls under Nehemiah (Nehemiah 3-6) are notable examples. These structures not only provided physical security but also symbolized the strength and resilience of God's people.<br><br><b>Houses and Domestic Structures</b><br><br>The Bible provides glimpses into domestic architecture, reflecting the daily lives of its characters. Houses were typically simple, constructed from materials like mud bricks or stone. The account of the widow of Zarephath, who hosted the prophet Elijah in her home (<a href="/1_kings/17-8.htm">1 Kings 17:8-24</a>), and the account of the Shunammite woman who prepared a room for Elisha (<a href="/2_kings/4-8.htm">2 Kings 4:8-10</a>) illustrate the hospitality and community life centered around these dwellings.<br><br><b>Symbolic and Eschatological Buildings</b><br><br>In the New Testament, buildings take on symbolic and eschatological significance. Jesus refers to Himself as the cornerstone (<a href="/matthew/21-42.htm">Matthew 21:42</a>), and believers are described as living stones being built into a spiritual house (<a href="/1_peter/2-5.htm">1 Peter 2:5</a>). The vision of the New Jerusalem in <a href="/bsb/revelation/21.htm">Revelation 21</a> presents a city with no temple, for "the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple" (<a href="/revelation/21-22.htm">Revelation 21:22</a>), signifying the ultimate fulfillment of God's presence with His people.<br><br>Throughout the Bible, buildings are more than mere physical structures; they are imbued with spiritual meaning, reflecting the relationship between God and humanity.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/40.htm"><span class="l">40. hagios -- sacred, holy</span></a> <br><b>...</b> The fundamental (core) meaning of 40 () is &quot;different&quot; -- thus a temple in the 1st<br> century was (&quot;holy&quot;) because from other <b>buildings</b> (Wm.
