Thickness or compactness, dense clay soil suitable for casting metal objects in molds
This term describes thickness or compactness, specifically dense clay soil in 1 Kings 7:46. The context is bronze casting for temple furnishings, done 'in the thickness of the ground'—meaning in compact clayey soil that could form good molds. However, the text is likely corrupt, with the parallel in 2 Chronicles using different wording, and some scholars suggesting the text originally referred to a geographical location (the ford of Adamah) rather than soil quality. If correct, it would describe the dense, clay-rich earth needed for ancient casting techniques.

1. sense 1 — Thickness or compactness of soil, specifically dense clay ground in 1 Kings 7:46 used for casting bronze temple furnishings. The term would describe compact, clayey soil suitable for making casting molds. However, textual issues exist—the parallel text differs, and some suggest reading 'ford of Adamah' instead. If soil quality is meant, it reflects ancient metal-casting techniques requiring dense clay for molds. 1×
