33. The construction of the wheels resembled chariot wheels. The axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all made of cast metal.
34. There was a handle on each of the four corners of every stand, projecting from the side of the stand.
35. The top of the stand had a band running around the perimeter that was nine inches deep. The stand had its own supports and panels.
36. On the surfaces of the supports and panels he carved winged otherworldly creatures, lions, and palm trees with wreaths everywhere.
37. In this manner he made ten stands, each one cast in a single mold of the same size and shape.
38. He made ten bronze washbasins, each able to hold forty baths. Every washbasin was six feet across, and there was one for each of the ten stands.
39. He placed five stands on the south of the temple and five on the north of the temple. He placed the Sea at the southeast corner of the temple.
40. Hiram made the basins, shovels, and bowls.And so Hiram finished his work on the Lord’s temple for King Solomon:
41. two columns;two circular capitals on top of the columns;two networks, adorning the two circular capitals on top of the columns;
42. four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, with two rows of pomegranates for each network that adorned the two circular capitals on top of the columns;
43. ten stands with ten basins on them;
44. one Sea;twelve oxen beneath the Sea;
45. and the pots, shovels, and bowls.All the equipment that Hiram made for King Solomon for the Lord’s temple was made from polished bronze.
46. The king cast it in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zarethan.
47. Due to the very large number of objects, Solomon didn’t even try to weigh the bronze.
48. Solomon also made all the equipment for the Lord’s temple: the gold altar; the gold table for the bread of the presence;
49. the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right and five on the left in front of the inner sanctuary; the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold;
50. the cups, wick trimmers, bowls, ladles, and censers of pure gold; and the gold sockets for the doors to the most holy place and for the doors to the main hall.
