Furnishings of the Temple
4 He made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high. 2 Then he made the cast sea; it was round, ten cubits from rim to rim, and five cubits high. A line of thirty cubits would encircle it completely. 3 Under it were panels all round, each of ten cubits, surrounding the sea; there were two rows of panels, cast when it was cast.
