However, the king promised not to disturb the old structure till all the material for the new one should be ready. He kept his word ; and after two years — the stipulated condition being com- plied with — the work was commenced (B. C. 14), and the old walls were taken down ; but only by degrees, and no faster than they could be replaced by new masonry. The main body of the temple was com- pleted in less than ten years ; but the whole was not finished for long afterwards — ' Forty and six years ...was this temple in building, ' said the Jews to Jesus (John ii. 20), and the end of the work had not even then been reached.

With tombs.
