1 Kings 7:35 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:35

And in the top of the base was there a round compass of half
a cubit high
The same with the chapiter, ( 1 Kings 7:31 ) which rose up straight half a cubit, and widening upwards half a cubit more, here called the round compass of it:

and on the top of the base, the ledges thereof and the borders thereof,
were of the same;
of the same piece of brass with the base, all being cast together.

1 Kings 7:35 In-Context

33 The wheels were like a chariot's wheels. Everything on the wheels -- the axles, rims, spokes, and hubs -- were made of bronze.
34 The four supports were on the four corners of each stand. They were made as one piece with the stand.
35 A strip of bronze around the top of each stand was nine inches deep. It was also made as one piece with the stand.
36 The sides of the stand and the frames were covered with carvings of creatures with wings, as well as lions, palm trees, and flowers.
37 This is the way Huram made the ten stands. The bronze for each stand was melted and poured into a mold, so all the stands were the same size and shape.
