1 Kings 7:47

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Read in KJV Bible Reader

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.

(i) לא נחקר "nec invesigari potuerit", Tigurine version: "non pervestigatum est", Junius, Tremellius, Piscator.
