Jeremías 52:22 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 52:22

And a chapiter of brass [was] upon it
Or a coronet of brass, of molten brass, was set upon the top of the pillar: and the height of one chapiter [was] five cubits;
as in ( 1 Kings 7:16 ) ; but in ( 2 Kings 25:17 ) ; the height is said to be but three cubits; which is reconciled by the Jewish Rabbins thus, the three superior cubits of it were with ornaments, the two inferior without any; the whole together was five cubits; but, as ornamented, only three: with network and pomegranates upon the chapiters round about, all [of]
brass;
the nets were of chequer work, and wreaths of chain work, and there were seven of them to each chapiter, ( 1 Kings 7:17 ) ; the second pillar also, and the pomegranates, [were] like unto these;
one pillar was exactly like the other, and the ornaments of it the same.

Jeremías 52:22 In-Context

20 El bronce de las dos columnas, de la fuente, de los doce toros que estaban debajo de la fuente, y de las bases, que el rey Salomón había hecho para el templo del SEÑOR, era tanto que no se podía pesar.
21 Cada columna medía ocho metros de altura y cinco y medio de circunferencia; su espesor era de ocho centímetros, y era hueca por dentro.
22 El capitel de bronce que estaba encima de cada columna medía dos metros de altura y estaba decorado alrededor con una red y con granadas de bronce. Las dos columnas tenían el mismo adorno.
23 De cada columna pendían noventa y seis granadas, y las granadas que estaban alrededor de la red eran cien en total.
24 El comandante de la guardia tomó presos a Seraías, sacerdote principal, a Sofonías, sacerdote de segundo rango, y a los tres porteros.
