2Chronicles:4
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And he made a brazen altar ,
the length of it twenty cubits ,
and the breadth twenty cubits ,
and the height ten cubits .
*
And he made the molten sea ,
in diameter ten cubits ,
entirely round ,
and the height of it five cubits ,
and the circumference thirty cubits .
*
And beneath it the likeness of calves ,
they compass it round about :
ten cubits compass the laver round about ,
they cast the calves (

Gr .
two kinds (:

two rows in their casting ,
*
wherein they made them twelve calves , —
three looking northwards ,
and three westwards ,
and three southwards ,
and three eastwards :
and the sea was upon them above ,
and their hinder parts were inward .
*
And its thickness was a hand-breadth ,
and its brim as the brim of a cup ,
graven with flowers of lilies ,
holding three thousand measures :
and he finished it .
*
And he made ten lavers ,
and set five on the right hand ,
and five on the left ,
to wash in them the instruments of the whole-burnt-offerings ,
and to rinse the vessels in them ;
and the sea was for the priests to wash in .
*
And he made the ten golden candlesticks according to their (

Gr .
judgement ;
Hebraism (:

pattern ,
and he put them in the temple ,
five on the right hand ,
and five on the left .
*
And he made ten tables ,
and put them in the temple ,
five on the right hand ,
and five on the left :
and he made a hundred golden bowls .
*
Also he made the priests ’
court ,
and the great court ,
and doors to the court ,
and their panels were overlaid with brass .
*
And he set the sea at the corner of the house on the right ,
as it were fronting the east .
*
And Chiram made the fleshhooks ,
and the fire-pans ,
and the grate of the altar ,
and all its instruments :
and Chiram finished doing all the work which he wrought for king Solomon in the house of God :
*
two pillars ,
and upon them an embossed work for the chapiters on the heads of the two pillars ,
and two nets to cover the heads of the chapiters which are on the heads of the pillars ;
*
and four hundred golden bells for the two nets ,
and two rows of pomegranates in each net ,
to cover the two embossed rims of the chapiters which are upon the pillars .
*
And he made the ten bases ,
and he made the lavers upon the bases ;
*
and the one sea ,
and the twelve calves under it ;
*
and the foot-baths ,
and the (

tongs (:

buckets ,
and the caldrons ,
and the flesh-hooks ,
and all their furniture (
which Chiram made ,
and brought to king Solomon in the house of the Lord )
of pure brass .
*
In the country round about Jordan the king cast them ,
in the clay ground in the house of Socchoth ,
and between that and Saredatha .
*
So Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance ,
for the quantity of brass failed not .
*
And Solomon made all the vessels of the house of the Lord ,
and the golden altar ,
and the tables ,
and upon them were to be the loaves of shewbread ;
*
also the candlesticks ,
and the lamps to give light according to the (

Gr .
judgement ;
Hebraism (:

pattern ,
and in front of the oracle ,
of pure gold .
*
And their snuffers ,
and their lamps were made ,
and he made the bowls ,
and the censers ,
and the fire-pans ,
of pure gold .
*
And there was the inner door of the house opening into the holy of holies ,
and he made the inner doors of the temple of gold .
So all the work which Solomon wrought for the house of the Lord was finished .
