1 Kings 7:26 states the molten sea contained 2,000 baths. 2 Chronicles 4:5 states the molten sea contained 3,000 baths. It was 5 cubits high and 47 feet around.
5 cubits = 7.4 feet when one cubit = 17.76 inches. Freemasons encoded this in the Declaration of Independence 7.4 1776 (July 4, 1776). 50 cubits = 74 feet, cubits=74=C3+U21+B2+I9+T20+S19. 74 feet = 888 inches. Jesus/Iesous in Greek isopsephy (gematria) equals 888. Iesous=88=I9+E5+S19+O15+U21+S19. Jesus=74=J10+E5+S19+U21+S19 and GOD=7_4.
Did the sea hold 2,000 or 3,000 baths? One explanation is that it usually contained app. 2,000 baths while its capacity was 3,000 baths. 3,000 baths = app. 17,500 gallons. 'Coincidentally', spacecraft & satellites must reach and maintain 17,500 mph to stay in orbit.
