1 Chronicles 28:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 28:16

And by weight he gave gold for the tables of shewbread, for
every table
For though there were but one table for the shewbread in the tabernacle of Moses, there were ten in the temple of Solomon, ( 2 Chronicles 4:8 ) and each of them contained one hundred pounds in weight ^F21:

and likewise silver for the tables of silver;
these were placed in the court, as Jarchi thinks, on which they flayed the sacrifices; or, as Kimchi, on which they slew them, and laid the flesh of the burnt offerings on them, which he gathers from ( Ezekiel 40:39 ) .
