NETBible

He set up the pillars on the porch in front of the main hall. He erected one pillar on the right¹ side and called it Jakin;² he erected the other pillar on the left³ side and called it Boaz.⁴

NET Notes

¹tn Or “south.”

²sn The name Jakin appears to be a verbal form and probably means, “he establishes.”

³tn Or “north.”

⁴sn The meaning of the name Boaz is uncertain. For various proposals, see BDB 126-27 s.v. בעז. One attractive option is to revocalize the name as בְּעֹז (be’oz, “in strength”) and to understand it as completing the verbal form on the first pillar. Taking the words together and reading from right to left, one can translate the sentence, “he establishes [it] in strength.”
