1 KINGS 7:50 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the bowls, and the snuffers, and the basons, and the spoons, and the censers of pure gold; and the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, to wit, of the temple.”
"and the cups, the snuffers, the basins, the dishes for incense, and the firepans, all of gold; and the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner room, the most holy place, and for the doors of the main hall of the temple." — The *complete inventory* of *golden vessels* and *fittings* are enumerated: *cups*, *snuffers*, *basins*, *incense dishes*, *firepans*. Even the *hinges* (*tzir*) of the *doors* are *gold*. Nothing in the *inner sanctum* is permitted to be *non-precious*; everything is *gold*, emphasizing the *complete transcendence* and *cosmic significance* of the holy place.
