1 Kings 6:31
"And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree: the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree,.... The door of the holy of holies was a two leaved or folding door, made of olive

wood; typical of Christ, the door into the church above and below, the way to heaven and eternal life, the true olive tree: the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall; four cubits, twenty cubits being the breadth of the oracle; or the lintel was four cubits, twenty being the height of it also, Kg1 6:20 .
