How many baths, 2000 or 3,000?
1 Kings 7:26 and 2 Chronicles 4:5
- 2,000 baths (1 Kings 7:26) - "And it was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, as a lily blossom; it could hold two thousand baths."
- 3,000 baths (2 Chronicles 4:5) - "And it was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom; it could hold 3,000 baths."
It appears that the difference in numbers is do to a copyist error. The characters used for the numbers 2,000 and 3,000 are similar. 
= 2,000 and 
= 3,000. A tired copyist could easily mistake one for another.
