Y en lo alto de la base había medio codo de altura redondo por todas partes; y encima de la base sus molduras y tableros, los cuales salían de ella misma.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And in the top of the base was there a round compass of half a cubit high,.... The same with the chapiter, 1 Kings 7:31 which rose up straight half a cubit, and widening upwards half a cubit more, here called the round compass of it:
and on the top of the base, the ledges thereof and the borders thereof, were of the same; of the same piece of brass with the base, all being cast together.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A round compass - A circular elevation, half a cubit high, rather than a circular depression, half a cubit deep. Compare 1 Kings 7:29. The âledgesâ and âbordersâ of the top of the base were its âhandsâ and its âpanels.â These âhands,â distinct from the âshouldersâ 1 Kings 7:30, were probably supports, adorned with engraved plates 1 Kings 7:36, either of the elevated circle on which the laver stood, or of the lower part of the laver itself. Both panels and âhandsâ were âof the same,â i. e. of one piece with the base, cast at the same time.
