1 Kings 7:15-22

15 He fashioned athe two pillars of bronze;
About 27 ft. or 8 m
,
ceighteen cubits was the height of
Lit the one
each pillar, and a line of
About 18 ft. or 5.5 m
twelve cubits
Lit went around the other pillar
measured the circumference of both.
16He also made two capitals of cast bronze to put on the tops of the pillars; the height of the one capital was
About 7.5 ft. or 2.3 m
five cubits and the height of the other capital was
About 7.5 ft. or 2.3 m
five cubits.
17There were lattices of latticework and wreaths of chainwork for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital and seven for the other capital. 18So he made the pillars, and two rows around on the one lattice to cover the capitals which were on the top of the pomegranates; and so he did for the other capital. 19The capitals which were on the tops of the pillars in the porch were of lily design, four cubits. 20So there were capitals on the two pillars, also above and close to the
Lit belly
rounded projection which was beside the lattice; and jthe pomegranates totaled two hundred in rows around
Lit on the other capital
both capitals.
21 lAnd he set up the pillars at the mporch of the
Lit sanctuary
main room: he set up the right pillar and named it
I.e., he shall establish
Jachin, and he set up the left pillar and named it
I.e., in it is strength
Boaz.
22On the top of the pillars was the lily design. So the work of the pillars was finished.
