1 Reis 10:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 10:20

And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other
upon the six steps
There was a lion on each side of every step, a symbol of royal power, as before observed; so the Egyptians placed lions under the throne of Orus F18:

there was not the like made in any kingdom;
for the matter and form of it, for its grandeur and magnificence; there was none at least at that time, whatever has been since; for this is the first throne of ivory we read of.

1 Reis 10:20 In-Context

18 Fez mais o rei um grande trono de marfim, e o revestiu de ouro puríssimo.
19 Tinha o trono seis degraus, e o alto do trono era redondo pelo espaldar; de ambos os lados tinha braços junto ao assento, e dois leões em pé junto aos braços.
20 E sobre os seis degraus havia doze leões de ambos os lados; outro tal não se fizera em reino algum.
21 Também todos os vasos de beber de rei Salomão eram de ouro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do Líbano eram de ouro puro; não havia nenhum de prata, porque nos dias de Salomão a prata não tinha estimação alguma.
22 Porque o rei tinha no mar uma frota de Társis, com a de Hirão; de três em três anos a frota de Társis voltava, trazendo ouro e prata, marfim, bugios e pavões.
