Exodus36:38

38 And the five pillars of it with their hooks: and he overlaid their chapiters, and their fillets with gold , but their five sockets were of brass.

Whereas the pillars are said to be overlaid with gold, Exod. 26. 37. that hence appears to be a Synecdochical expression, in regard the tops and knobs of the pillars were wholly overlaid with gold, and the rest of the pillars, adorned with divers golden girdles or hoops: for that place is in all reason to be explained by this as coming after it, and containing the execution of that prescript, and that more particularly than is there expressed.
