36. and the stands were decorated with flower designs and figures of lions, palm trees, and winged creatures.
37. Hiram made the ten bronze stands from the same mould, so they were exactly the same size and shape.

43. ten moveable stands; ten small bowls for the stands;

45. pans for hot ashes, and also shovels and sprinkling bowls.Hiram made these bronze things for Solomon
46. near the River Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan by pouring melted bronze into clay moulds.
