What Does 1 Kings 7:30 Mean?

Each stand was fitted with four bronze wheels and axle-plates, and at its four corners were cast supports to bear the weight of the basin set above. The stands were made to be moved as well as to carry water.

That the stands could roll meant the water of cleansing could be brought where it was needed, not fixed in one place. There is a picture here of grace that goes out, that is carried near. The cleansing God provides is not locked away but borne to the very place of need, ready at hand wherever His servants labor.
