I have answered your question, jackass. I will not be bullyragged. But if you want, the inner circumference, when rounded to the units that 1 Kings itself uses, is 29 cubits and 3 hands, not 30 cubits. Even with your ridiculous assumption that the diameter is measured to the outside but the circumference to the inside, the circumference given in 1 Kings is wrong when rounded to the units used by 1 Kings.

That being said, such rounding introduces or assumes an error, and you claim the Bible is inerrant.

This is the problem with cultists; when their irrational belief run headlong into reality, they become hysterical.

Now go bray at the moon. I'm done.

Oooohh, a tough guy.

You just can't stand it, can you? You previously denied that the measurement of a hand's breadth even existed in the bible and now you are insisting that it must be used when approximating cubital measurements. You just can't admit that the inside circumference was 30 cubits. You demand a scientific accuracy which did not exist back then. Nearly all measurements in the bible were rounded to the nearest cubit.

This is the problem with cultists; when their irrational belief run headlong into reality, they become hysterical.

You are the one who is hysterical here. You can't bring yourself to say 30. It's just too painful, isn't it?

Now go bray at the moon. I'm done.

Bye.
