In what year did King Solomon (the son of David) initiate the building of the Temple?

Question

The Bible tells us, "The king David answered and said, Call me Bathsheba. And she came into the king's presence, and stood before the king. And the king sware, and said, As the LORD liveth, that hath redeemed my soul out of all distress, Even as I sware unto thee by the LORD God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day. Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord King David live for ever. And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king. The king also said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon." What year did Solomon start the building of the Temple?

Answer 2

God directed that Solomon would be the King to build the Temple, as it was to be built by a man of peace. King Solomon began building the Temple in the fourth year of his reign, in 1034 BCE. The work took seven years to finish and the temple exsisted until 607 BCE.

Answer 3

About 1009-1012 B.C., in the month of Zif (the second month in the Jewish calendar.) [1 Kings 6:1]
Solomon was born about 1034 BC.
King David died about 1015 BC and it took about a year to clarify who was the rightful heir to the throne.
The Temple's construction began 408 years after Israel came out of Egypt, in the fourth year of his reign as King of Israel.
