The candlesticks. These ten candlesticks, five on the north side and five on the south side of the holy place, were probably in addition to the one seven-branched candlestick made for the tabernacle (Ex. 25:31-40 ; 37:17-24).

The bowls. Many of the articles here mentioned are also enumerated as among the items provided for the sanctuary (Ex. 25:29, 38). When Jerusalem fell to Nebuchadnezzar, these articles were carried off to Babylon (2 Kings 25:14, 15).
