Cross-References
In the beginnyng GOD created ye heauen and the earth.
And the earth was without fourme, and was voyde: & darknes [was] vpon the face of the deepe, and the spirite of God moued vpon the face of the waters.
And God called the light day, and the darknes night: and the euenyng & the mornyng were the first day.
And God said: let there be a firmament betwene the waters, and let it make a diuision betwene waters and waters.
And God called the firmament the heauen: and the euenyng and the mornyng were the seconde day.
And God saide: let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered together into one place, and let the drye lande appeare: and it was so.
And God sayde: let the earth bryng foorth [both] budde and hearbe apt to seede, and fruitfull trees yeeldyng fruite after his kynde, which hath seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so.
And God blessed them, and God sayde vnto them: be fruitefull, & multiplie, and replenishe the earth, & subdue it, and haue dominion of the fisshe of the sea, and foule of the ayre, & of euery lyuing thing that moueth vpon the earth.
And God sayde: beholde, I haue geuen you euery hearbe bearing seede, which is in the vpper face of all ye earth, and euery tree in the which is the fruite of a tree bearing seede, [that] they may be meate vnto you:
He stretcheth out the noorth ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And this is the number of them,.... Of the vessels delivered, as follows:
thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver; these, according to Ben Melech, were vessels in which water was put to wash hands in; but rather they were, as Aben Ezra observes from the Jerusalem Talmud r, vessels in which they gathered the blood of lambs and bullocks slain for sacrifices:
nine and twenty knives; which, because the handles of them were of gold or silver, were valuable, and might be very large knives, and what the priests used in slaying and cutting up the sacrifices.
r T. Hieros. Yoma, fol. 41. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Chargers - The word in the original thus translated occurs only in this passage. Its meaning is doubtful. Some derive it from a Hebrew root, “to hollow out,” and translate “cup” or “vessel.”
Knives - This is another doubtful word, only used here. The etymology points to some employment of basket-work.
