1 Kings 7:47 - John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

Bible Comments

And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed], because they were exceeding many,.... The vessels of brass before mentioned, being so large, at least some of them, and so numerous; the Targum is, he laid them up, or placed them; he brought them from whence they were cast, and put them in the sanctuary without weighing them:

neither was the weight of the brass found out; or "searched" i; it never was inquired into; or, as the Targum, there was no end of it, it was so much.
