1 Kings 6

"And the temple, when it was being built, was built with stone finished at the quarry, so that no hammer or chisel or any iron tool was heard in the temple while it was being built." v.7

Read chapter 6
Details of the intricate construction of the temple fill this chapter.  I always think of some of my friends who are carpenters and wonder if they would love this chapter of construction talk and be in awe of why things were constructed certain ways.  It's interesting to note that the stones were chiseled and formed away from the temple until they were ready to be placed so that the temple wasn't disturbed with the noise of tools.  The temple was built in silence.  McLearen's Expositions thinks this can be an "encouragement to those whose work is inconspicuous and a lesson not to mistake noise and notoriety for spiritual progress." 
Every stone was made ready at the quarry and then transported.  This must have made the transportation of the stones of serious care.  We can also be like these stones being made ready at the quarry for the temple.  While we're living in this present age and world waiting for Christ's Kingdom to come, we are be chiseled away being made perfect until the completion of Christ when He returns to make us all one body, His body, perfectly fit together to see and be our purpose.
