sedang dua belas singa berdiri di atas keenam tingkat itu sebelah-menyebelah; belum pernah diperbuat yang demikian bagi sesuatu kerajaan.
Dan lagi dua belas ekor singa adalah berdiri di atas enam tingkat itu pada kiri kanannya; maka yang demikian belum pernah diperbuat orang, dalam barang suatu kerajaan juapun tidak.

lions: Genesis 49:9, Numbers 23:24, Numbers 24:9, Revelation 5:5
the like made: Heb. so made
Reciprocal: Ecclesiastes 2:4 - I builded
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps,.... There was a lion on each side of every step, a symbol of royal power, as before observed; so the Egyptians placed lions under the throne of Orus r:
there was not the like made in any kingdom; for the matter and form of it, for its grandeur and magnificence; there was none at least at that time, whatever has been since; for this is the first throne of ivory we read of.
r Hori Apoll. Hieroglyph, l. 1. c. 17.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Solomonâs throne, as described, is certainly grander than any of which we have a representation, either in Assyria or Egypt. Much more, then, would it transcend the thrones in inferior kingdoms.
