1 Kings 7:15-24
1 Kings 7:15-24 CSB
He cast two bronze pillars, each 27 feet high and 18 feet in circumference. , He also made two capitals of cast bronze to set on top of the pillars; 7 1/2 feet was the height of the first capital, and 7 1/2 feet was also the height of the second capital. The capitals on top of the pillars had gratings of latticework, wreaths made of chainwork — seven for the first capital and seven for the second. He made the pillars with two encircling rows of pomegranates on the one grating to cover the capital on top; he did the same for the second capital. And the capitals on top of the pillars in the portico were shaped like lilies, six feet high. The capitals on the two pillars were also immediately above the rounded surface next to the grating, and two hundred pomegranates were in rows encircling each capital. He set up the pillars at the portico of the sanctuary: he set up the right pillar and named it Jachin; then he set up the left pillar and named it Boaz. , The tops of the pillars were shaped like lilies. Then the work of the pillars was completed. He made the cast metal basin, , 15 feet from brim to brim, perfectly round. It was 7 1/2 feet high and 45 feet in circumference. Ornamental gourds encircled it below the brim, ten every half yard, completely encircling the basin. The gourds were cast in two rows when the basin was cast.
