1 KINGS 10:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the best gold.”
"and twelve lions stood there, one on each end of a step on the six sides of the throne; nothing like it was made for any kingdom." — The *magnificent sculpture*: *twelve lions total*, positioned on either side of *each of the six steps*. The phrase *le-kol mamlacha lo-nithye `aken hu* (nothing like it was made for any kingdom) emphasizes the *unparalleled splendor*. The *throne becomes an icon* of Solomonic glory.
