Contextual Overview

13 King Solomon sent for a man named Huram who lived in Tyre and brought him to Jerusalem. 14 Huram's mother was an Israelite from the tribe of Naphtali. His dead father was from Tyre. Huram made things from bronze. He was a very skilled and experienced builder. So King Solomon asked him to come, and Huram accepted. King Solomon put him in charge of all the bronze work, and Huram did all the work he was given to do. 15 Huram made two bronze columns for the porch. Each column was 18 cubits tall and 12 cubits around. The columns were hollow and their metal walls were 3 inches thick. 16 He also made two bronze capitals that were 5 cubits tall. He put these capitals on top of the columns. 17 He made two nets of chain to cover the capitals on top of the two columns. 18 Then he made two rows of bronze pomegranates. He put the bronze pomegranates on the nets of each column to cover the capitals at the top of the columns. 19 The capitals on top of the columns were shaped like flowers. 20 The capitals were on top of the columns, above the bowl-shaped net. There were 200 pomegranates in rows all around the capitals. 21 Huram put these two bronze columns at the porch of the Temple. One column was put on the south side of the entrance and one was put on the north side of it. The column on the south was named Jakin. The column on the north was named Boaz. 22 They put the flower-shaped capitals on top of the columns, and the work on the two columns was finished.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there were four undersetters to the four corners of one base,.... Or pillars, as in 1 Kings 7:30

and the undersetters were of the base itself; they were cast together, and of the same piece of metal with it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The undersetters were cast with the base, not afterward attached to it, and were therefore stronger and better able to support the laver.
