1st Kings 7:2 [Solomon] builds [this] palace of wildwood from the Lebanon {White-Forest} [mountains]. [The palace measures] 175 feet long [by] 87.5 feet wide [by] 52.5 feet high. 4 rows of cedar pillars support the [palace's] cedar [ceiling] beams.
The commercial translations imply another building in Lebanon that has nothing to do with this chapter about building the palace in Jerusalem. Literal Hebrew: and·he-is-building house-of wildwood-of the·Lebanon This verse may refer to only one main hall in the palace.
2nd Chronicles 2:8 [Please] also send me cedar trees, fir trees and algum logs from [the mountains of] Lebanon {White-Forest}. For I know that your servants expertly mill Lebanese timber. Also, [you'll see that] my workers [work well] with your workers.
Ezra 3:7 And [using the war-crimes reparation fund] authorized by Persia's Emperor Cyrus {Sun}, the [Hebrew leaders] pay silver to [Israel's] stone-workers and carpenters. The [leaders also] pay food, beverages and [olive] oil to the [loggers] of Sidon {Fish-City} and of Tyre {Rock-Port}. These [loggers] haul cedar trees from Lebanon {White-Forest}. [They float the logs ~85km south along the coast of the Mediterranean] Sea to [the Israeli port of] Joppa {Beauty}.
The rationale for using this pagan government money was that the pagan empire who destroyed the temple offered to pay to rebuild it, as voluntary war-crimes reparation. This should not be read as a license for Christians to draw secular government benefits. Joppa is modern Jaffa, a suburb of Tel-Aviv, in Israel.
Psalms 104:16 YHVH's trees brim full of sap. He plants [and waters] the cedars of [the mountains of] Lebanon {White-Forest}.
Song of Solomon 3:9 [CITY-GIRL: Inside,] King Solomon {Peace-Man} made himself a [bed shaped like a] chariot, [built from] the White-Forest woods of [the mountains of] Lebanon. [CITY-GIRL: And we get that chariot ROLLING'!]
Song of Solomon 4:6 [Solomon whispers in her ear. SOLOMON: Tonight,] until morning breeze blows, I'll [climb] up on [your] mountain of myrrh. I'll mount your hill of frankincense 'til my sun blows your shadows away. [He grabs her haunch. She pushes him back. The crowd reappears. They gasp. Solomon grimaces at the crowd. He growls like a beaten animal. He touches the six-star pendant on his neck. Mysterious power whisks him and the Shepherdess into an art-gallery. She gasps. She and Solomon stand alone before an overwhelming wall-mural. It depicts the [White-Forested mountains] of Lebanon. She rubs her eyes, seeing the snow, the birds, the trees moving, as if the painting is alive.]
IsaiYAH 2:13 [Judgment day dawns to smash down] all the lofty ‘cedars of Lebanon {White-Forest}.’ [YAH advances to crush] all [earth's ivory-tower tyrants, including] all the [Jewish] ‘oaks’ of Bashan {Fruitful}.
JeremiYAH 22:6 YHVH foretells Judea's royal palace: “You're my [favorite place, like the lovely hills of] Gilead {Monument-Mound}. You're [like] the [soaring] summit of the Lebanon {White-Forest} [mountains]. Yet I come to reduce your [realm] to a wilderness of uninhabited cities.
JeremiYAH 22:20 Hike up the Lebanon {White-Forest} [peaks]. Cry [from the summit]. Lift up your voice in Bashan {Fruitful}. Cry from the Abarim {Mountain-Passages}. All your [pagan commercial and political] lover-allies [lie] smashed [to bits].
Hosea 14:5 [See the future, 😇:] I become [healing] dew to Israel. [They] blossom like a lily. [They] shoot down [deep] roots like [the towering cedars and the foothill-spurs of the] Lebanon {White-Forest} [mountains].
lit: he blossoms...
Hosea 14:6 [Your] branches spread, 😇. [Your] beauty shines like an olive tree. [Your] smell [changes from death-rot] to the [fresh clean cedar] scent [of the] Lebanon {White-Forest} [peaks].
Hosea 14:7 [The redeemed-remnant] return [to the land of Israel, 😇]. They dwell [safely] under [my protective] shadow. They revive like grain [after a tornado]. They grow, budding like [fruitful] vines, [wafting] fragrance like wine from Lebanon {White-Forest}.
