Commentary on 2 Chronicles 4:19

Theological / Devotional

All the vessels. Verses 19–22 give a catalogue of the objects of gold (see 1 Kings 7:48–50).

The tables. The parallel passage in 1 Kings 7:48 reads “the table.” Also in 2 Chron. 13:11 and 29:18 only a single table is mentioned. The tabernacle had only one table of shewbread (Ex. 25:23, 30; 37:10). But 2 Chron. 4:8 mentions ten tables in the Temple; see comment there.
