23 And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, and his height was five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.

Pretty silly stuff there
Oh, I imagine that the writers of 1 Kings certainly had a knowledge of fractions as well as of how to calculate the circumference of a circle. But they were not writing a math text but rather telling a tale.

If anything it is a clear example that many Biblical critics have no sense of humor.
