Whoever said, “Cleanliness is next to Godliness” wasn’t kidding! God was serious about the priests being clean.

2 Chronicles 4:5, “Its thickness was a handbreadth, its brim was like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily; it held 3000 baths (measures).”

According to the NIV Study Bible text notes, 3000 baths is about 17, 500 gallons (about 66 kiloliters) of water. And that was just for “ceremonial” washing! Yes, God is serious about cleanliness.
