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 La obra de las basas era esta: tenían unas cintas, las cuales estaban entre molduras:
29 Y sobre aquellas cintas que estaban entre las molduras, figuras de leones, y de bueyes, y de querubines; y sobre las molduras de la basa, así encima como debajo de los leones y de los bueyes, había unas añadiduras de bajo relieve.
30 Cada basa tenía cuatro ruedas de bronce con mesas de bronce; y en sus cuatro esquinas había unos hombrillos, los cuales nacían de fundición á cada un lado de aquellas añadiduras, para estar debajo de la fuente.
31 Y la boca del pie de la fuente entraba un codo en el remate que salía para arriba de la basa; y era su boca redonda, de la hechura del mismo remate, y éste de codo y medio. Había también sobre la boca entalladuras con sus cintas, las cuales eran cuadradas, no redondas.
32 Las cuatro ruedas estaban debajo de las cintas, y los ejes de las ruedas nacían en la misma basa. La altura de cada rueda era de un codo y medio.
