1 Kings 7:27 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:27

And he made ten bases of brass
Seats, stands, or settles for the ten lavers after mentioned:

four cubits was the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth
thereof;
as broad as it was long, and so a square, that the laver might stand firm upon it:

and three cubits the height of it;
from the ground plates to the surface, that the priests might be able to reach the layers, and wash their sacrifices.

1 Kings 7:27 In-Context

25 The Sea rested on twelve oxen with their backs toward the center, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east.
26 The Sea was as thick as the width of a hand. Its rim was shaped like a cup or an open lily blossom. It could hold two thousand baths.
27 He also made ten bronze stands. Each was six feet long, six feet wide, and four and a half feet high.
28 This is how each stand was made: There were panels connected between the legs.
29 Lions, bulls, and winged otherworldly creatures appeared on the panels between the legs. On the legs above and below the lions and bulls were wreaths on panels hanging off the stands.
