Context of 1 Kings 7:45
43the ten bases and the ten basins on the bases, 44the one sea and the 12 oxen under the sea, the pots, the shovels and the basins. All these vessels Hiram made for King Solomon in the House of Adonai were made of polished bronze. 46The king had them cast in the plain of the Jordan, with clay of the ground between Sukkot and Zarethan. 47Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because they were too many—the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

"Jachin," God will fix this roving mind. It is good that the heart be established with grace. "Boaz," In him is our strength, who works in us both to will and to do.
