About this Bible story

In 1 Kings 6:38, we learn about Solomon's dedication to building the temple. He worked hard, and 'He had spent seven years building it.' This coloring page helps kids visualize this important Bible story.

β€œHe had spent seven years building it.”

β€” 1 Kings 6:38 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

To make the coloring activity effective, ask kids to share what they think was the most important part of the temple as they color. Highlight Solomon's dedication when they ask about the details in the images. Have colored pencils ready for finer details, and consider a follow-up where they can create their own 'temple' using craft supplies.

More about these Bible coloring pages

During our art time last week, my 9-year-old daughter pulled out the Solomon's Temple coloring pages and asked about the details in the pictures. We discussed how Solomon designed the temple with great care, emphasizing that 'He had spent seven years building it' (1 Kings 6:38). Each page features different aspects of the temple, from the grand entrance to the beautiful decorations. As she colored, she mentioned how important it was for Solomon to create a special place for God's presence. These pages are not just fun; they help kids connect with the Bible story in a meaningful way. I plan to use them during our next Sunday school class as a way to reinforce our lesson. Kids will love bringing Solomon's Temple to life with their crayons, and it’s a great free printable to share with other families too.
