I've been reading in Exodus. Facebook has this nifty application where you can choose how to read through the Bible in a year. I've chosen to read it chronologically. It's been a very neat experience. Anyhow, I'm towards the end of Exodus, where Moses receives instructions for the buidling of the Tabernacle of the Covenant. Honestly, I cannot even begin to imagine how majestic it much have appeared.
Did you know....
- They used 2193 pounds of gold = $17,697,510 today
- They used 7545 pounds of silver = $1,569,360 today
- They used 5310 pounds of bronze = $7,699.50 today
I just think that is totally incredible. Now I did the math myself with some comparison charts online, so this is not 100% accurate, but I just think this is wild.
