16 and the pots, shovels, and meat forks.[a] All the items King Solomon assigned Huram Abi to make for the Lord’s temple[b] were made from polished bronze. 17 The king had them cast in earth foundries[c] in the region of the Jordan between Sukkoth and Zarethan. 18 Solomon made so many of these items they did not weigh the bronze.[d]
