and the bowls This is the word which is usually rendered -basons." See 2 Samuel 17:28, &c. A different word is translated -bowl" elsewhere, see Judges 6:38. As -basons" occurs later on in the verse, the R.V. has changed -bowls" here to -cups," a rendering given for this word sometimes on the margin of A. V.

and the censers This Hebrew word is frequently rendered -censer," but as in Exodus 27:3; Exodus 38:3 and other places, where it relates to the altar furniture and fittings, the plural is rendered -fire pans," the R.V. has introduced that rendering here. Cf. also 2 Kings 25:15 and Jeremiah 52:19. In the latter part of this verse the R.V. preserves the order of the Hebrew, and gives a little more explicitness, by removing -of gold" after -hinges" to the end of the verse. With the description here given should be compared the account of the vessels of the Mosaic tabernacle. Exodus 25-30.
