Reciprocal: Exodus 30:12 - takest Exodus 30:16 - appoint Numbers 26:2 - General 2 Chronicles 25:6 - an hundred talents of silver
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation,.... This was not the offering of silver,
Exodus 35:24 but what was collected in numbering the people, where everyone of twenty years old and upwards paid half a shekel,
Exodus 30:12 the sum
[was] an hundred talents, one thousand seven hundred and threescore fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary; which, according to Brerewood q, make of our money, 37,721 pounds, seventeen shillings, and six pence; according to Waserus r, the whole amounted to 150,887 dollars and a half: and so, according to Lundius s, the sum is so many imperials, and forty five creutzers or cross pennies.
