1 He also made a bronze altar thirty feet long, thirty feet wide, and fifteen feet high.
2 Then he made a tank of cast metal called the Sea. It was circular in shape, fifteen feet from rim to rim, seven and a half feet high, and forty-five feet in circumference.
3 Under the rim were two rows of oxlike figures completely encircling it, ten every eighteen inches, each cast in its mold.
4 The Sea rested on twelve oxen with their backs toward the center, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east.
5 The Sea was as thick as the width of a hand. Its rim was shaped like a cup or an open lily blossom. It could hold three thousand baths.
