1 Kings 7:5
"And all the doors and posts were square, with the windows: and light was against light in three ranks."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And all the doors and posts were square with the windows,.... The doors into the several stories and apartments, and the posts and lintel of them, and the windows over

them, were all square: and light was against light in three ranks; they answered one another as before.
