2 Chronicles 4:2-3

4:2 He also made the big bronze basin called “The Sea.” ¹  It measured 15 feet ²  from rim to rim, was circular in shape, and stood seven and one-half feet ³  high. Its circumference was 45 feet. ⁴  4:3 Images of bulls were under it all the way around, ten every eighteen inches ⁵  all the way around. The bulls were in two rows and had been cast with “The Sea.”

¹ tn Heb “He made the sea, cast.”

² tn Heb “ten cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the diameter would have been 15 feet (4.5 m).

³ tn Heb “five cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the height would have been 7.5 feet (2.25 m).

⁴ tn Heb “and a measuring line went around it thirty cubits all around.”

⁵ tn Heb “ten every cubit.”
