15He fashioned athe two pillars of bronze; beighteen cubits was the height of one pillar, and a line of twelve cubits 1measured the circumference of both.

16He also made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars; the height of the one capital was five 1cubits and the height of the other capital was five cubits.

17There were nets of network and twisted threads of chainwork for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital and seven for the other capital.

18So he made the pillars, and two rows around on the one network to cover the capitals which were on the top of the pomegranates; and so he did for the other capital.

19The capitals which were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily design, four cubits.

20There were capitals on the two pillars, even above and close to the 1rounded projection which was beside the network; and athe pomegranates numbered two hundred in rows around 2both capitals.

21aThus he set up the pillars at the bporch of the nave; and he set up the right pillar and named it 1Jachin, and he set up the left pillar and named it 2Boaz.

22On the top of the pillars was lily design. So the work of the pillars was finished.
