Fillet
filet (, hut, , hashuk):
(1) Hut, from a root not used, meaning probably to sew, therefore a string or a measuring rod or cord, and so a line, tape, thread, fillet. Jer 52:21 translated line (the King James Version fillet), measuring 12 cubits long, encircling brass pillars standing 18 cubits high, part of the temple treasure plundered by the Chaldeans; and many other things that were in the house of Yahweh, did the Chaldeans break in pieces. Translated thread, used by Rahab, in Jos 2:18, and cord, Three fold … is not quickly broken, in Ecc 4:12.
(2) Hashuk, from a root meaning to join and therefore something joined or attached, and so a rail or rod between pillars, i.e. a fillet. The hangings of the court of the tabernacle were supported by brass pillars set in brass sockets, The hooks of the pillars and their fillets shall be of silver (Exo 27:10, Exo 27:11). The embroidered screen for the door of the Tent was supported by five pillars socketed in brass: And he overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold (Exo 36:38). The pillars for the court and the gate of the court had fillets of silver (Exo 38:10). The verb is used in Exo 27:17; Exo 38:17, All the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.
