Their symbolic character, apart from other evidence, may be concluded from the circumstance that, as Schick has shown, the columns stood free, and did not serve as a support for any part of the gateway. There is no need, therefore, for any hesitation in comparing these two columns, whose presence in the Solomonic structure is certainly due to foreign influence, to those found at Nippur.
Through His training this oppressed and downtrodden people, slaves and captives of the Pharaohs, established the splendor of the Solomonic sovereignty. This is an example of a universal Teacher, a universal Educator.
The tradition forms a part of the Solomonic lore, and is frequently told in esoteric works. Solomon afterwards cast this bottle into a deep well near Babylon. This legend is also found in the tale of the Fisherman and the Djinn in the Arabian Nights, which was also treated by the German poet Klopstock in his poem “Wintermärchen” .
When the Recorder recommended to the king the expediency of dispersing his Solomonic harem, and abolishing polygamy in the royal family, his Majesty retorted with a verbal message to the editor, to the purport that "when the Recorder shall have dissuaded princes and noblemen from offering their daughters to the king as concubines, the king will cease to receive contributions of women in that capacity."
She imparted to this sentiment, in itself almost Solomonic, so extremely injurious and personal a character by levelling it straight at the visitor's head, that it became necessary to lead Mr F.'s Aunt from the room. This was quietly done by Flora; Mr F.'s Aunt offering no resistance, but inquiring on her way out, 'What he come there for, then? with implacable animosity.
At the Solomonic era the era of the building of the temple at Jerusalem the world, it must be remembered, was supposed to have that very oblong form, which has been here symbolized.
The two large brick columns at the entrance to the Nippur court are paralleled in the case of the Solomonic temple by the two large columns, known as Yakhin and Boaz, that stood at the gateway. These names are as yet unexplained.
We may assume that the same was the case with the larger temples of Babylonia, and this three-fold division of the interior, the vestibule, or pronaos, the main hall, or naos, and the papakhu, further warrants the comparison of a Babylonian sacred edifice with the Solomonic temple, where likewise we have the vestibule, the hall known as the 'holy' part, and the 'holy of holies, the one leading into the other.
Its original is the great lamp which stood in the tabernacle, and was replaced in the Solomonic Temple by ten smaller ones. These had been carried away at the Captivity, and we do not read of their restoration. But the main thing to note is the differences between this lamp and the one in the tabernacle.
Again we have Reinhold telling us, in true Teutonic expansiveness of expression, that "by the mystical Solomonic temple we are to understand the high ideal or archetype of humanity in the best possible condition of social improvement, wherein every evil inclination is overcome, every passion is resolved into the spirit of love, and wherein each for all, and all for each, kindly strive to work."
