1 Kings — Chapter 7

Cornelius à Lapide SJ · Biblical Commentary

Verse 13

Hiram of Tyre, the master craftsman: Lapide notes that Hiram (born of a widow of Naphtali and a father from Tyre) is a type of Christ born of a widow-type Church, uniting in himself Gentile and Jewish craftmanship to build the spiritual Temple — the Church.
