8 He made ten tables and set five on the right and five on the left. He also made a hundred gold bowls.

12 two pillars; two bowl-shaped capitals for the tops of the pillars; two decorative filigrees for the capitals;
13 four hundred pomegranates for the filigrees (a double row of pomegranates for each filigree);
