Contextual Overview

1 Then he made a brass altar. It was ten steps long, and ten steps wide, and three times taller than a man. 2 He melted brass and made a pool. It was round, and five long steps from one side to the other. It was as tall as a man can raise his hand. And it took fifteen steps to walk around it. 3 There were objects that looked like oxen under the pool and all around it, (ten long steps around it). The oxen were in two rows, and were made of one piece. 4 The pool was put on the twelve oxen. Three had their faces toward the north, three toward the west, three toward the south, and three toward the east. The pool was put on top of them. All their tails were toward the center. 5 The brass of the pool was as thick as a hand is wide. Its round top was made like the top of a cup, like a lily flower. It could hold 22,000 bottles of water. 6 He made ten pots in which to wash. He put five on the right side and five on the left side. They were to wash what was used for the burnt gifts. But the pool was for the religious leaders to wash in. 7 Then he made ten gold lamp-stands, as was shown in the plan. He put them in the house of God, five on the right side and five on the left. 8 He made ten tables and put them in the house of God. Five were on the right side and five on the left. And he made 100 deep dishes out of gold. 9 Then he made the open space of the religious leaders, the large open space, and the doors for the open space. And he covered their doors with brass. 10 He set the pool at the south-east corner of the house.
