⁴⁵ Now ^(A)the pots, the shovels, and the basins, all these vessels in the house of the Lord, which Hiram made for King Solomon, were of burnished bronze.

³ You shall make pots for it to receive its ashes, and shovels and basins and ^(A)forks and fire pans. You shall make all its utensils of bronze.

¹⁶ The pots, the shovels, ^(A)the forks, and all the equipment for these ^(B)(C)Huram-abi made of burnished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the Lord.

³ And he made all the utensils of the altar, the pots, the shovels, the basins, the forks, and the fire pans. He made all its utensils of bronze.

²¹ And every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be ^(A)holy to the Lord of hosts, so that all who sacrifice may come and take of them and boil the meat of the sacrifice in them. And ^(B)there shall no longer be ^(C)a trader^[a] in the house of the Lord of hosts ^(D)on that day.

²⁰ And he said to me, “This is the place where the priests ^(A)shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where ^(B)they shall bake the grain offering, in order not to bring them out into the outer court and so ^(C)transmit holiness to the people.”

²¹ Then he brought me out to the outer court and led me around to the four corners of the court. And behold, in each corner of the court there was another court— ²² in the four corners of the court were small^[a] courts, forty cubits^[b] long and thirty broad; the four were of the same size. ²³ On the inside, around each of the four courts was a row of masonry, with hearths made at the bottom of the rows all around. ²⁴ Then he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who ^(D)minister at the temple ^(E)shall boil the sacrifices of the people.”

¹³ The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant would come, while the meat was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand, ¹⁴ and he would thrust it into the pan or kettle or cauldron or pot. All that the fork brought up the priest would take for himself. This is what they did at Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

³¹ And Moses said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the flesh at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, ‘Aaron and his sons shall eat it.’
