Four hundred pomegranates. This number of pomegranates substantially agrees with the parallel, (1Ki_7:20) There were two hundred of them on each wreath that encircled the chapiter. The pomegranate was a favourite ornament in work as well as in more solid architectural forms. (Exo_28:33, Exo_28:34) The popularity of the fruit as (Num_13:23 Num_20:5; Deu_8:8; Jos_15:32 Jos_21:25) its simple beauty to the eye, (Son_4:3, Son_4:13) and its welcome homeliness, will quite account for this beside any symbolic significance that may have become attached to it. The description of the pomegranate as a fruit may be found in any Bible dictionary, but especially in Tristram"s "Natural History of the Bible."
