   Here’s why everyone thought it was three: the Bible never said what shape the bowl was! It could’ve been an oval, a square, or a triangle for any matter. “Across” isn’t the same as “diameter” and “around” isn’t the same as “circumference”.

   The King James Version said it was “round in compass”, as I recall. But it didn’t say to what precision the numbers 10 and 30 were given; if they were simply rounded off to the nearest cubit the vessel could have been circular and the measurements correct (though not exact).

   King James Version should never be taken as an authority as to what the Bible actually says, since it is not necessarily an accurate translation.
