Jeremiah 52:17-23
17The Babylonians broke apart the bronze pillars of the Lord’s temple, the stands, and the bronze pool in the Lord’s temple. They shipped all the bronze to Babylon.
18They took the pots, shovels, snuffers, bowls, dishes, and all the bronze utensils used in the temple service.
19The captain of the guard also took pans, incense burners, bowls, pots, lamp stands, dishes, and the bowls used for wine offerings. The captain of the guard took all of the trays and bowls that were made of gold or silver.
20The bronze from the 2 pillars, the pool, and the 12 bronze bulls under the stands that King Solomon had made for the Lord’s temple couldn’t be weighed.
21One pillar was 27 feet high and 18 feet in circumference. It was three inches thick and hollow.
22The capital that was on it was 7½ feet high with a filigree and pomegranates around it. They were all made of bronze. The second pillar was the same. It also had pomegranates.
23There were 96 pomegranates on the sides. The total number of pomegranates on the surrounding filigree was 100.
