Context of 1 Kings 7:33
31The opening to each stand inside the crown at the top was one cubit deep, with a round opening like the design of a pedestal, a cubit and a half wide. And around its opening were engravings, but the panels of the stands were square, not round. 32There were four wheels under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand; each wheel was a cubit and a half in diameter. The wheels were made like chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of cast metal. 34Each stand had four handles, one for each corner, projecting from the stand. 35At the top of each stand was a circular band half a cubit high. The supports and panels were cast as a unit with the top of the stand.
