SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:28
La obra de las basas era ésta: tenían unas cintas, las cuales estaban entre molduras;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 7:38
Verse 38. Then made he ten lavers] These were set on the ten bases or pedestals, and were to hold water for the use of the priests in their sacred office, particularly to wash the victims that were to be offered as a burnt-offering, as we learn from 2 Chron. iv. 6; but the brazen sea was for the priests to wash in. The whole was a building of vast art, labour, and expense.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 28. And the work of the bases was on this manner , etc.] The following was the form in which they were made: they had borders ; plates of brass all around them, which enclosed them: and the borders were between the ledges ; which were short staves or bars of brass, that stood upright all around, like the staves of a cart on each side, or the rails of a balcony, only in double rows; and between these were the borders or plates of brass.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-47 - The two brazen pillars in the porch of the temple, some think, were to teach those that came to worship, to depend upon God only, for strengt and establishment in all their religious exercises. "Jachin," God wil 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 an to do. Spiritual strength and stability are found at the door of God' temple, where we must wait for the gifts of grace, in use of the mean of grace. Spiritual priests and spiritual sacrifices must be washed in the laver of Christ's blood, and of regeneration. We must wash often for we daily contract pollution. There are full means provided for ou cleansing; so that if we have our lot for ever among the unclean it will be our own fault. Let us bless God for the fountain opened by the sacrifice of Christ for sin and for uncleanness.
