Contextual Overview
21 This is a list of the materials used to make the Holy Tent, where the Agreement was kept. Moses ordered the Levites to make this list, and Ithamar son of Aaron was in charge of keeping it. 22 Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur of the tribe of Judah, made everything the Lord commanded Moses. 23 Oholiab son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan helped him. He could cut designs into metal and stone; he was a designer and also skilled at sewing the blue, purple, and red thread, and fine linen. 24 The total amount of gold used to build the Holy Tent was presented to the Lord . It weighed over 2,000 pounds, as set by the Holy Place measure. 25 The silver was given by the members of the community who were counted. It weighed 7,550 pounds, as set by the Holy Place measure. 26 All the men twenty years old or older were counted. There were 603,550 men, and each man had to pay one-fifth of an ounce of silver, as set by the Holy Place measure. 27 Of this silver, 7,500 pounds were used to make the one hundred bases for the Holy Tent and for the curtain—75 pounds of silver in each base. 28 They used 50 pounds of silver to make the hooks for the posts and to cover the tops of the posts and to make the bands on them. 29 The bronze which was presented to the Lord weighed about 5,000 pounds. 30 They used the bronze to make the bases at the entrance of the Meeting Tent, to make the altar and the bronze screen, and to make all the tools for the altar.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two thousand four hundred shekels. Which, according to Paris weight, were 6177 pounds, ten ounces, two drachms, and sixty four grains w: this might be had from the neighbouring mountains of Arabia, where it is said x the metals of brass and iron were first dug.
w Vid. Scheuchzer, ut supra. (Physic. Sacr. vol. 2. p. 253.) x Aristeas de 72. interpret. p. 42. Vid. Hieron. de loc. Hebr. fol. 90. A.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
According to the estimate of the shekel that has here been adopted, the weight of the metals mentioned in this chapter would be nearly as follows, in avoirdupois weight:
| Gold | 1 ton | 4 cwt. | 2 qrs. | 13 lbs. |
| Silver | 4 tons | 4 cwt. | 2 qrs. | 20 lbs. |
| Bronze | 2 tons | 19 cwt. | 2 qrs. | 11 lbs. |
The value of the gold, if pure, in our money would be 175,075 British pounds, 13 shillings, and of the silver, 38,034 British pounds, 15 shillings 10d. These quantities of the precious metals come quite within the limits of probability, if we consider the condition of the Israelites when they left Egypt (see Exodus 25:3 note), and the object for which the collection was made. Many have remarked that the quantities collected for the tabernacle are insignificant when compared with the hoards of gold and silver collected in the East in recent times, as well as in ancient times.
