The Book of Ahkman

1And behold I, Ahkman, did witness unto the people that the manner in which the temple had been built was in all wise correct. For it had been built after the pattern which had been revealed unto my father according to the records which he had received. For behold, after my father had received the word of God, and after we had discovered the cave of treasures we did gather our kinsfolk, and did begin to build a temple. And we did build with the best materials we could acquire. And we did build the temple and decorate the interior with bamboo, and with narra, and with gold, and with silver, and all beautiful stones. Now this is the pattern after which we did build the temple: We did build a most holy place. And to the east of it was did build a holy place. And on the doors between the most holy place and the holy place were engraved two trees, one on the one panel and the other on the other panel, which trees do symbolize the Tree of Life, and the Tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil. And to the east of the most holy place we had built a room. Now within this room doth stand a guard with a sword, which guarded the entrance to the most holy place. And the entrance to this room is to the east and is entered in by a gate. Now this was the house. And to the east of the house we did build two pillars. And one pillar was made out of bronze and the other was made out of brick. And we did write the most important parts of the law upon them. And to the east of the house was a bronze basin made and it was placed within the walled court to the east. Also to the east in another walled court was built up an altar of unhewn stone. Now to the east and round about the house and the two walled courts, was the upper court. And to the east and round about the upper court was the lower court. And within the walls of the upper court and also the lower court were two pedestals. One to the east and one to the west. And there were chambers along the northern wall, and also the southern wall. And thus the upper and lower courts were finished in an identical manner. Now behold to the east of the lower court was a vestibule which was also a gate. And it came to pass I taught them that this was the manner in which the temple was completed. And all knew it was beautiful. And we did take the sacred writings and artifacts within the most holy place. And we did store the treasures of the people within the walls of the courts of the temple.
