1 Kings 7:40-47

40Hiram also made basins, shovels, and bowls. He finished all the work on the Lord’s temple he had been assigned by King Solomon.

41He made the two pillars, the two bowl-shaped tops of the pillars, the latticework for the bowl-shaped tops of the two pillars,

42the four hundred pomegranate-shaped ornaments for the latticework of the two pillars (each latticework had two rows of these ornaments at the bowl-shaped top of the pillar),

43the ten movable stands with their ten basins,

44the big bronze basin called “The Sea” with its twelve bulls underneath,

45and the pots, shovels, and bowls. All these items King Solomon assigned Hiram to make for the Lord’s temple were made from polished bronze.

46The king had them cast in earth foundries in the region of the Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan.

47Solomon left all these items unweighed; there were so many of them they did not weigh the bronze.
