וּ֠פִיהוּ מִבֵּ֨ית לַכֹּתֶ֤רֶת וָמַ֙עְלָה֙ בָּֽאַמָּ֔ה וּפִ֙יהָ֙ עָגֹ֣ל מַעֲשֵׂה־כֵ֔ן אַמָּ֖ה וַחֲצִ֣י הָֽאַמָּ֑ה וְגַם־עַל־פִּ֙יהָ֙ מִקְלָע֔וֹת וּמִסְגְּרֹתֵיהֶ֥ם מְרֻבָּע֖וֹת לֹ֥א עֲגֻלּֽוֹת׃
Und der Mund davon innerhalb der Krone und darüber war eine Elle hoch; und der Mund davon war rund nach der Arbeit eines Sockels, eineinhalb Ellen; und auch auf dem Mund davon waren Gravuren; und ihre Grenzen waren viereckig, nicht rund.
Rashi on I Kings
And the rim of the vessel was inside the crown and rose above it an amoh. The mouth of the base extends outward of the rim of the crown and goes upward an amoh high. The crown is the roof of the base, made like a hat, [i.e.,] sloping on all sides, and in the center a round hole was set, with a diameter that was one and one half amohs, and around that hole was the resemblance of an enclosure of a partition one half amoh high around. And below this is thus explained regarding this subject, as it is stated, “At the top of the base [was a frame] half an amoh high circular all around,”50Below v. 35. and that is called “פי הכותרות [=the rim of the crown].” And the base rests on that enclosure, and the bottom of the base is inserted into the rim of the enclosure, and it protrudes one amoh above it. This is what is stated here, “And the rim of the vessel was inside the crown and rose above it an amoh.”

The rim was round made like the base. And the rim of the crown was round, a replica of the base which was round.
