Verse 38 is found in chapter 7 of 1 Kings. The great bronze Sea is made, along with the stands, basins, pots, shovels, and other utensils. The abundance of details demonstrates the complexity of the temple’s cultic system. Water has a practical function related to priestly purification, while the monumental ensemble communicates order and grandeur. The description prepares for the installation of these objects during the temple dedication.
