Yes, Solomon's Temple was built prior to the construction of his house. This occurred early in his reign and the Temple took seven years to build. The palace complex followed and took thirteen years to construct.

Was there a temple before Solomon built one?

A:Jerusalem already existed before the arrival of the Hebrews, so there would certainly have been a temple there, long before the time of Solomon. Scholars have even compared the description of King Solomon's Temple with the Canaanite temples found elsewhere, and say that Solomon's Temple appears to have been identical to traditional Canaanite temples. In fact, they say, it is possible that Solomon did not so much build a new temple as repair or improve an existing one.
