Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - This verse, with vers. 14, 15, are all here that represent the lengthy account of bases rather than layers, occupying in the parallel vers. 27-39 of 1 Kings 7, which, however, omits to state the use of either sea or layers.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English ReadersTHE TEN LAVERS: THEIR USE, AND THAT OF THE SEA(2Chronicles 4:6). (Comp. 1Kings 7:27-39.)(6) The chronicler now returns to his abbreviating style, and omits altogether the description of the ten bases, or stands, upon which the lavers were placed, and which are described in full and curious detail in 1Kings 7:27-39. The unusual difficulty of the passage may have determined the omission, but it seems more likely that the sacred writer thought the bases of less importance than the objects described in 2Chronicles 4:7-9, the account of which he has interpolated between the first and second half of 1Kings 7:39. . . .
