1 Reyes 7:30 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:30

And every base had four brasen wheels, and plates of brass,
&c.] Flat pieces or planks of brass, on which the wheels stood, and not on the bare floor; so that these wheels seem only to serve as supporters, not to carry the laver from place to place, as is usually said; for they were not like chariot wheels, on two sides of the carriage, but set one at each square; and besides, when the lavers were placed upon them, they were fixed in a certain place, ( 1 Kings 7:39 )

and the four corners thereof had undersetters;
or "shoulders F1", or pillars, which were placed on the plates of brass the wheels were; and served with them to support the lavers when laid upon the bases, and so were of the same use as men's shoulders, to bear burdens on them:

under the layer were undersetters molten;
cast as, and when and where, the bases were, and the plates on which they stood; this explains the use they were of, being under the laver; these pillars stood at the four corners of the base:

at the side of every addition;
made of thin work, ( 1 Kings 7:29 ) they stood by the side of, or within side, the sloping shelves.

1 Reyes 7:30 In-Context

28 Estaban revestidas con paneles entre los bordes,
29 y en los paneles había figuras de leones, bueyes y querubines, mientras que en los bordes, por encima y por debajo de los leones y los bueyes, había guirnaldas repujadas.
30 Cada base tenía cuatro ruedas de bronce con ejes también de bronce, y por debajo de su lavamanos se apoyaba sobre cuatro soportes fundidos que tenían guirnaldas en cada lado.
31 La boca del lavamanos estaba dentro de una corona, y sobresalía cuarenta y cinco centímetros; era redonda, y con su pedestal medía sesenta y siete centímetros. Alrededor de la boca había entalladuras, pero sus paneles eran cuadrados, no redondos.
32 Las cuatro ruedas estaban debajo de los paneles, y los ejes de las ruedas estaban unidos a la base. Cada rueda medía sesenta y siete centímetros de diámetro
