2 Chronicles 4:17-22
earthen foundries <0127 05645> [clay ground. Heb. thicknesses of the ground. Zeredathah.]
[Zarthan.]
weigh <04948> [the weight.]
items <03627> [all the vessels.]
gold <02091> [the golden.]
tables <07979> [the tables.]
lampstands <04501> [the candlesticks.]
burned ... specified <01197 04941> [burn after.]
inner sanctuary <01687> [the oracle.]
flower-shaped <06525> [the flowers.]
Probably each branch of the chandelier was made like a plant in flower; and the opening of the flower was either the lamp, or served to support it.
pure gold <02091 04357> [perfect gold. Heb. perfections of gold.]
That is, the purest and best gold.
trimming <04212> [snuffers.]
basins <04219> [basons. or, bowls. the entry.]
Capellus and others suppose we should read, agreeably to 1 Ki 7:50, "The hinges also of the doors of the inner house," etc.; the word {pothoth,} "hinges," being mistaken for {paithach,} "an entry" or "door-way."
