וְאַרְבַּ֣עַת הָאֽוֹפַנִּ֗ים לְמִתַּ֙חַת֙ לַֽמִּסְגְּר֔וֹת וִיד֥וֹת הָאֽוֹפַנִּ֖ים בַּמְּכוֹנָ֑ה וְקוֹמַת֙ הָאוֹפַ֣ן הָאֶחָ֔ד אַמָּ֖ה וַחֲצִ֥י הָאַמָּֽה׃
Las cuatro ruedas estaban debajo de las cintas, y los ejes de las ruedas nacían en la misma basa. La altura de cada rueda era de un codo y medio.
The Third Beit HaMikdash
He made “four copper wheels for each stand.”2I Melachim 7:30. Each stand resembled a large wagon.3I.e., the stands resemble carriages in which the basins were placed. “Each wheel was one-and-one-half cubits high. The wheels were fashioned like chariot wheels.”4I Melachim 7:32-33. Each wheel was made up of two wheels, one inside the other,5Rashi, I Melachim 7:33. Rashi based his commentary on this verse on Yechezkel 1:16. in a crisscross. Thus, the person moving the stand could easily turn it in any direction without having to maneuver it extensively.
