As in ( 1 Kings 7:15 ) ; said to be thirty five, ( 2 Chronicles 3:15 ) ; of the reconciliation of which, (See Gill on 2 Chronicles 3:15): and a fillet of twelve cubits did compass it;

that is, the pillar was hollow.

Jeremiah 52:21 In-Context

19 And the basins, and the censers, and the bowls, and the caldrons, and the lampstands, and the spoons, and the cups; that which was of gold in gold, and that which was of silver in silver, the captain of the guard took away.

20 The two pillars, one sea, and twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which King Solomon had made in the house of the LORD; the brass of all these vessels could not be weighed.

21 And concerning the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a fillet of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers: it was hollow.

22 And a chapiter of brass was upon it; and the height of one chapiter was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The second pillar also and the pomegranates were like unto these.

23 And there were ninety-six pomegranates on a side; and all the pomegranates upon the network were one hundred round about.
