2 Chronicles 4:11-18

11Huram-abi also made the necessary washbasins, shovels, and bowls. So at last Huram-abi completed everything King Solomon had assigned him to make for the Temple of God:

12the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars; the two networks of interwoven chains that decorated the capitals;

13the 400 pomegranates that hung from the chains on the capitals (two rows of pomegranates for each of the chain networks that decorated the capitals on top of the pillars);

14the water carts holding the basins;

15the Sea and the twelve oxen under it;

16the ash buckets, the shovels, the meat hooks, and all the related articles. Huram-abi made all these things of burnished bronze for the Temple of the Lord, just as King Solomon had directed.

17The king had them cast in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zarethan.

18Solomon used such great quantities of bronze that its weight could not be determined.
