2 Chronicles 4:16 in context
14He made also bases, and lavers made he upon the bases;
15One sea, and twelve oxen under it.
16The pots also, and the shovels, and the fleshhooks, and all their instruments, did Huram his father make to king Solomon for the house of the LORD of bright brass.
17In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.
18Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance: for the weight of the brass could not be found out.

We have here such a summary both of the brass-work and the gold-work of the temple as we had before (Kg1 7:13, etc.), in which we have nothing more to observe than, 1. That Huram the workman was very punctual: He finished all that he was to make (Ch2 4:11), and left no part of his work undone.
