29<\/strong>. and upon the ledges<\/em> there was a base above<\/em> ] The word here rendered ‘base’ differs from that in the two previous verses and so the R.V. has rendered a pedestal<\/strong>. It seems to denote some projection upward from the four shafts at the corners to act as a support for the lavers when they were put in position.<\/p>\n certain additions made of thin work<\/em> ] These words signify rather ‘festoons, work that hung down.’ So R.V. wreaths of hanging work<\/strong>.<\/p>\n A base; <\/B>so he calls the uppermost part of the base; for though it was above, yet it was a base to the laver, which stood upon it. <\/P> Certain additions; <\/B>either as bases for the feet of the said lions and oxen, or only as further ornaments. <\/P> <\/p>\n And on the borders that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubims<\/strong>,….
