Gill's Notes on the Bible

The golden spoons [were] twelve, full of incense,.... Which points at the use those spoons or cups were of, namely, to carry incense in them, such as were used on the day of atonement l:

[weighing] ten [shekels] apiece, after the shekel of the sanctuary;

:-;

all the gold of the spoons [was] twenty [shekels]; which amounted to forty nine ounces, five drachms, scruples, and eight gains, worth about seventy five pounds of our money.

l Misn. Yoma, c. 4, 4. & 5, 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The aggregate worth, by weight, of the whole of the offerings was about 438 British pounds: But the real worth of such a sum, when measured by the prices of clothing and food at that time, must have been vastly greater.
