In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan belongs to the account of Solomon's reign during the undivided kingdom in 1 Kings 1-11, corresponding to 2 Chronicles 1 to 9. In chronological order it stands together with the building and furniture of the temple, the dedication prayer and sacrifices, and the divine answer to Solomon's prayer. It is part of the account of the erection and construction of Solomon's temple sanctuary and its vessels and sacred furnishings. It records that the temple vessels were cast in the clay ground of the plain of Jordan between Succoth and Zarthan.
The temple was a larger, permanent and enlarged form of the tabernacle patterned on it, built over seven years and six months with its vessels increased in size and number. It shared the sacred furnishings with the tabernacle in kind and use, and with its two holy places and furnishings served as a pattern of the heavenly temple. The casting was done by the temple builders through the special wisdom and God-given power of invention and skill granted for construction, which was given for the benefit of the masses and for the furtherance of His cause.
