and the bowls; or "basins"; there were a hundred of them made of gold, 2 Chronicles 4:8;
and the cauldrons; or "pots"; these are not mentioned, 2 Kings 25:15; what they should be, that were either of gold or silver, cannot be said:
and the candlesticks; of which there were ten in number, made of pure gold, five on the right side, and five on the left, before the oracle, 1 Kings 7:49;
and the spoons; which were also of gold, 1 Kings 7:50;

[that] which [was] of gold [in] gold, and [that] which [was] of silver [in] silver, took the captain of the guard away; that is, everything that was of gold or silver he took away; the golden things by themselves, and the silver things by themselves, as some think.
