EXPLANATION

Verse 3. Pans, and so forth The Septuagint have, “a crown or border, for the altar, and its covering, and its cups, and flesh-hooks, and fire-place, or pan.” Hebrew also has five terms; which Calmet renders: 1. a small kettle to receive the ashes under the grate; 2. fire-shovels; 3. bowls to receive blood (mozrokoth, which term the Vulg. does not perhaps notice); 4. flesh-hooks; 5. chafing-dishes. The Protestant version has also the basins or broad cups, phialas, of the Septuagint Bible.
