Contextual Overview
1 He made an altar of bronze thirty-five feet long, thirty-five feet wide and seventeen-and-a-half feet high. 2 He made the cast metal "Sea" circular, seventeen-and-a-half feet from rim to rim, eight-and-three quarters feet high and fifty-two-and-a-half feet in circumference. 3 Below the rim a ring of ox-like figures encircled it, ten for every twenty-one inches all the way around the Sea. The oxen were in two rows; they were cast when the Sea was cast. 4 It rested on twelve oxen, three looking north, three looking west, three looking south and three looking east, all with their hindquarters toward the center. The Sea was set on top of them. 5 It was a handbreadth thick, its rim was made like the rim of a cup, like the flower of a lily; and its capacity was 16,500 gallons. 6 He also made ten basins for washing and put five on the right and five on the left. Items needed for the burnt offerings would be cleansed in these, but the Sea was for the cohanim to wash in. 7 He made the ten menorahs of gold in accordance with their specifications and set them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. 8 He also made ten tables and put them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. And he made a hundred basins of gold. 9 He made the courtyard for the cohanim and the great courtyard, also the doors to the courtyard, which he overlaid with bronze. 10 The Sea he placed on the right side [of the house], toward the southeast.
