Jeremia 52:19

19 En de overste der trawanten nam weg de schalen, en de wierookvaten, en de sprengbekkens, en de potten, en de kandelaars, en de rookschalen, en de kroezen; wat geheel goud, en wat geheel zilver was.

Jeremia 52:19 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 52:19

And the basins
Or "bowls"; these are omitted, ( 2 Kings 25:15 ) ; they were of gold, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the firepans;
or "censers"; these were those of gold, which belonged to the golden altar, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the bowls;
or "basins"; there were a hundred of them made of gold, ( 2 Chronicles 4:8 ) ; and the cauldrons;
or "pots"; these are not mentioned, ( 2 Kings 25:15 ) ; what they should be, that were either of gold or silver, cannot be said: and the candlesticks;
of which there were ten in number, made of pure gold, five on the right side, and five on the left, before the oracle, ( 1 Kings 7:49 ) ; and the spoons;
which were also of gold, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the cups:
the word is rendered "bowls", to cover withal, ( Exodus 25:29 ) ; it was some kind of instrument or vessel used about the shewbread table, made of pure gold; according to Jarchi, these were little golden forks, upon which they placed the shewbread, to keep it from moulding; according to the Misna ^F3, there were four of them: [that] which [was] of gold [in] gold, and [that] which [was] of silver
[in] silver, took the captain of the guard away;
that is, everything that was of gold or silver he took away; the golden things by themselves, and the silver things by themselves, as some think.

Jeremia 52:19 In-Context

17 Verder braken de Chaldeen de koperen pilaren, die in het huis des HEEREN waren, en de stellingen, en de koperen zee, die in het huis des HEEREN was; en zij voerden al het koper daarvan naar Babel.

18 Ook namen zij de potten en de schoffelen, en de gaffelen, en de sprengbekkens, en de rookschalen, en al de koperen vaten, waar men den dienst mede deed.

19 En de overste der trawanten nam weg de schalen, en de wierookvaten, en de sprengbekkens, en de potten, en de kandelaars, en de rookschalen, en de kroezen; wat geheel goud, en wat geheel zilver was.

20 De twee pilaren, de ene zee, en de twaalf koperen runderen, die in de plaats der stellingen waren, die de koning Salomo voor het huis des HEEREN gemaakt had; het koper daarvan, te weten van al deze vaten, was zonder gewicht.

21 Aangaande de pilaren, achttien ellen was de hoogte eens pilaars, en een draad van twaalf ellen omving hem; en zijn dikte was vier vingeren, en hij was hol.
