The distance around a circle, equal to 3.1416 times the circle's diameter.
Many Christian commentators have questioned this, on Biblical grounds. In 1 Kings 7:23-26 and 2 Chronicles 4:2-5, the Bible describes how Solomon built the house of the Lord. In both passages, it says that he made a molten sea, round all about, ten cubits across and thirty cubits around. By this reasoning, it is hard to see how the secular value of pi can be maintained.
