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.

1 Kings 7:33 In-Context

31 Each had a 1½-foot-deep opening in the center to the circular frame on top. The opening was round, formed like a pedestal, and was two feet [wide]. Around the opening there were engravings. But the panels were square, not round.

32 The four wheels were under the panels, and the axles were attached to the stand. Each wheel was two feet high.

33 The wheels were made like chariot wheels. The axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all cast metal.

34 The four supports at the four corners of each stand were part of the stand.

35 The top of each stand had a round, nine-inch-high band. Above the stand were supports which were part of the panels.
