AnswerJewish biblical tradition says that the First Temple was constructed in Jerusalem by King Solomon.

However, many biblical scholars doubt the historicity of Solomon, pointing out that there is no extra-biblical evidence for his existence. Archaeologists say that Jerusalem was at best a small, unwalled village of mud-brick houses at the time attributed to Solomon, and could not have financed or resourced the construction of a magnificent temple. It must have been constructed during the reign of a later king, after which its construction was eventually added to the legend of Solomon.
