Bronze Sea
Bronze basin at the entrance to the tabernacle used for ceremonial purification before sacrifices were made. It also symbolized God’s forgiveness after sacrifices were made. Solomon commissioned a large basin for the temple at Jerusalem. It was over 14 feet in diameter and seven feet high: it weighed over 25 tons and held 13,000 gallons of water. It sat on the backs of 12 oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east.
