November 21, 2010 – Exodus 38

A talent is roughly 57 lbs.  29 talents would be 1653 lbs. of gold used.  A shekel was around 11 grams.  So 8030 grams of gold, or a little over 17.7 lbs.  So  1670.5 lbs. altogether.  Gold is around 990 an ounce.   So we are looking at $26,460,720 in the gold that was used for the Dwelling.  Just a little interesting fact.  I posted this picture before, but thought it might be helpful again since this is the description of the outer walls of the Dwelling.
