Contextual Overview
13 Now King Solomon brought Hiram from Tyre. 14 Hiram was the son of a woman whose husband had died, from the family of Naphtali. His father was a man of Tyre, who worked with brass. He was filled with wisdom and understanding and much learning for doing any work with brass. So he came to King Solomon, and did all his work. 15 He made the two pillars of brass. One of them was five times taller than a man. And the length around each of them was as far as six long steps. 16 He made two top pieces of melted brass to set on the tops of the pillars. One piece to go on top was as tall as a man can raise his hand. And the other piece to go on top was as tall as a man can raise his hand. 17 He made nets of network and turned strings of chain-work for the pieces on top of the pillars. There were seven for one top piece, and seven for the other. 18 So Hiram made the pillars. There were two rows of pomegranates around each network, to cover the top pieces. 19 Now the top pieces on the pillars of the porch were made to look like lily flowers, as tall as a man. 20 The top pieces were upon the two pillars, and above the round part beside the network. There were 200 pomegranates in rows around both top pieces. 21 He set up the pillars at the porch of the house. He set up the right pillar and called it Jachin. And he set up the left pillar and called it Boaz. 22 The top pieces on the pillars were made to look like lily flowers. So the work of the pillars was finished.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel,.... In the same form and fashion as one of them; the Targum is,
"like a chariot of glory;''
a splendid one, curiously wrought; unless reference is had in it to the chariot of Ezekiel's vision:
their axle trees, and their naves, and their felloes, and their spokes, were all molten; cast together when the base was.
