Exodus 35:5 - Additional Comments

The Bible does not specify the quantity of gold needed to make specific Tabernacle furnishings, except for the lampstand (menorah), which we know weighed one talent (Ex. 37:24), including all its accoutrements. One can reasonably suppose that the remaining gold furnishings of the Tabernacle (excluding the ark cover) came to a weight similar to that of the lampstand. A like quantity of gold was required to cover the planks. According to this assumption, the weight of all the Tabernacleold furnishings, save for the ark cover, was between five and ten talents.
A talent is about 75 pounds, so the tabernacle had between 375 and 750 pounds of gold!
