40He also made the bowls, shovels and sprinkling bowls.

So Huram finished all of the work he had started for King Solomon. Here’s what he made for the Lord’s temple.

41He made the two pillars.

He made the two tops for the pillars. The tops were shaped like bowls.

He made the two sets of chains that were linked together. They decorated the two bowl-shaped tops of the pillars.

42He made the 400 pomegranates for the two sets of chains. There were two rows of pomegranates for each chain. They decorated the bowl-shaped tops of the pillars.

43He made the ten stands with their ten bowls.

44He made the huge bowl. He made the 12 bulls that were under it.

45He made the pots, shovels and sprinkling bowls.

Huram made all of those objects for King Solomon for the Lord’s temple. He made them out of bronze. Then he shined them up. 46The king had made them in clay molds. It was done on the flatlands of the Jordan River between Succoth and Zarethan.

47Solomon didn’t weigh any of those things. There were too many of them to weigh. No one even tried to weigh the bronze they were made out of.
