Footnotes

2a	2 Chr. 3: 3 (3-4) 3 ¶ Now these are the things wherein Solomon was instructed for the building of the ^ahouse of God. The length by cubits after the ^bfirst measure was threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. D&C 95: 13. 13 Now here is wisdom, and the ^amind of the Lord—let the house be built, not after the manner of the world, for I give not unto you that ye shall live after the manner of the world;
b	2 Ne. 5: 16. 16 And I, Nephi, did ^abuild a ^btemple; and I did construct it after the manner of the temple of ^cSolomon save it were not built of so many ^dprecious things; for they were not to be found upon the land, wherefore, it could not be built like unto Solomon’s ^etemple. But the manner of the construction was like unto the temple of ^fSolomon; and the workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine.
c	Ezek. 41: 2. 2 And the breadth of the ^adoor was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and the ^bbreadth, twenty cubits.
