Contextual Overview
1He made a bronze altar 30 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 15 feet high. 2Then he made the cast metal basin, 15 feet from brim to brim, perfectly round. It was 7½ feet high and 45 feet in circumference. 3The likeness of oxen was below it, completely encircling it, ten every half yard, completely surrounding the basin. The oxen were cast in two rows when the basin was cast. 4It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The basin was on top of them and all their hindquarters were toward the center. 5The basin was three inches thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup or a lily blossom. It could hold eleven thousand gallons. 6He made ten basins for washing and he put five on the right and five on the left. The parts of the burnt offering were rinsed in them, but the basin was used by the priests for washing. 7He made the ten gold lampstands according to their specifications and put them in the sanctuary, five on the right and five on the left. 8He made ten tables and placed them in the sanctuary, five on the right and five on the left. He also made a hundred gold bowls. 9He made the courtyard of the priests and the large court, and doors for the court. He overlaid the doors with bronze. 10He put the basin on the right side, toward the southeast.
