1 Chronicles 28:17 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 28:17

Also pure gold for the flesh hooks
To take the pieces of flesh out of the pots, in which they were boiled:

and the bowls and the cups; and for the golden basins he gave gold by
weight for every basin;
which were vessels made use of for the receiving and sprinkling the blood of the sacrifices: likewise silver

by weight for every basin of silver;
for it seems some of them were of silver, as others were of gold.
