2 Chronicles 4 — Context

He made the two pillars, the two bowl-shaped tops of the pillars, the latticework for the bowl-shaped tops of the two pillars,

the four hundred pomegranate-shaped ornaments for the latticework of the two pillars(each latticework had two rows of these ornaments at the bowl-shaped top of the pillar),

the ten movable stands with their ten basins,

the big bronze basin called“The Sea” with its twelve bulls underneath,

and the pots, shovels, and meat forks. All the items King Solomon assigned Huram Abi to make for the LORD’s temple were made from polished bronze.

The king had them cast in earth foundries in the region of the Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan.

Solomon made so many of these items they did not weigh the bronze.
