1 Kings 7:33 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:33

And the work of the wheels was like the work of a
chariot wheel
In the same form and fashion as one of them; the Targum is,

``like a chariot of glory;''

a splendid one, curiously wrought; unless reference is had in it to the chariot of Ezekiel's vision:

their axle trees, and their naves, and their felloes, and their spokes,
were all molten;
cast together when the base was.

33 The wheels were like chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of bronze.
34 There were four supports at the bottom corners of each cart, which were of one piece with the cart.
35 There was a 9-inch band around the top of each cart; its supports and the panels were of one piece with the cart.
