1 Kings 7:38-39

Context

7:38 He also made ten bronze basins, each of which could hold about 240 gallons. 1  Each basin was six feet in diameter; 2  there was one basin for each stand. 7:39 He put five basins on the south side of the temple and five on the north side. He put “The Sea” on the south side, in the southeast corner.

1 tn Heb “forty baths” (a bath was a liquid measure roughly equivalent to six gallons).

2 tn Heb “four cubits, each basin.” It is unclear which dimension is being measured.
