12. two pillars ] See 2Ch 3:15-17.

(12) And the pommels, and the chapitersi.e., the globes and the capitals. Kings, Authorised Version has bowls, but in Hebrew the word is the same (gullth, globes). The globes of the capitals (Kings) is plainly incorrect.
Which were on the top of the two pillars.Heb. (and the globes and the capitals), on the top of the pillars, two; i.e., two globes and capitals. The word two (shtayim) is feminine, agreeing with globes and capitals, which are also feminine; whereas pillars is a masculine term.
Wreaths.Heb., sbkhth, lattices. (Comp. 2Ki. 1:2.) The Authorised version of 1Ki. 7:41 gives network, but the Hebrew word is the same as here.
