The chapter details the sacred furnishings Solomon made for the temple: a bronze altar twenty cubits square and ten cubits high; the molten sea ten cubits in diameter resting on twelve bronze oxen representing the four directions, capable of holding three thousand baths. Ten golden lampstands and ten tables were made according to specification and placed in the temple, five on each side, along with one hundred golden bowls, and the courts of the priests and the great court with bronze-covered doors. Huram-abi completed the two pillars, their capitals, networks, and four hundred pomegranates, the stands, basins, pots, shovels, and forks, all of burnished bronze, cast in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
