Furniture for the Temple

He made a bronze altar that was 20 cubits[a] long, 20 cubits wide, and 10 cubits[b] tall. Then he made a large tank[c] from melted bronze. It was round and it measured 10 cubits across from edge to edge. It was 5 cubits[d] tall and about 30 cubits[e] around. There were images of bulls under the lip of the large bronze tank.[f] They were in two rows that went 10 cubits around the tank. The bulls were molded in place when the tank was shaped.
