1 Reyes 7:36 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 7:36

For on the plates of the ledges thereof, and on the borders
thereof
In this, and the preceding verse, a different word is used, translated "ledges", from that in ( 1 Kings 7:28 1 Kings 7:29 ) , the Targum renders it axle trees; as if the axle trees of the wheels, and the borders, circumferences, and rings of them, were meant, in which were the following engravings: it literally signifies hands or handles; and Procopius Gazaeus says, that the bases had, in the upper part of them, forms of hands holding a circle like a crown:

he graved cherubims, lions, and palm trees, according to the proportion
of everyone;
these figures were made as large as the plates of the ledges, and the borders, would allow room for:

and the addition round about;
which were sloping shelves of brass around the base, ( 1 Kings 7:29 ) these were ornamented in like manner.

1 Reyes 7:36 In-Context

34 Asimismo los cuatro hombrillos á las cuatro esquinas de cada basa: y los hombrillos eran de la misma basa.
35 Y en lo alto de la basa había medio codo de altura redondo por todas partes: y encima de la basa sus molduras y cintas, las cuales eran de ella misma.
36 E hizo en las tablas de las molduras, y en las cintas, entalladuras de querubines, y de leones, y de palmas, con proporción en el espacio de cada una, y alrededor otros adornos.
37 De esta forma hizo diez basas fundidas de una misma manera, de una misma medida, y de una misma entalladura.
38 Hizo también diez fuentes de bronce: cada fuente contenía cuarenta batos, y cada una era de cuatro codos; y asentó una fuente sobre cada una de las diez basas.
