## 1 Kings 7:24-26 in Context (Verses 21–29 KJV)
 
 [21 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/21) And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple: and he set up the right pillar, and called the name thereof Jachin: and he set up the left pillar, and called the name thereof Boaz.**
 
 [22 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/22) And upon the top of the pillars *was* lily work: so was the work of the pillars finished.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/23) ¶ And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: *it was* round all about, and his height *was* five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.*
 
 [24 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/24) And under the brim of it round about *there were* knops compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about: the knops *were* cast in two rows, when it was cast.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/25) It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea *was set* above upon them, and all their hinder parts *were* inward.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/26) And it *was* an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/27) ¶ And he made ten bases of brass; four cubits *was* the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth thereof, and three cubits the height of it.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/28) And the work of the bases *was* on this *manner:* they had borders, and the borders *were* between the ledges:
 
 [29 ](/kjv/1-kings/7/29) And on the borders that *were* between the ledges *were* lions, oxen, and cherubims: and upon the ledges *there was* a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen *were* certain additions made of thin work.
