⁸⁴ So these were the gifts from the Israelite leaders when ·oil was poured on the altar [the altar was anointed] ·and it was given for service to the Lord [to dedicate it]: twelve silver plates, twelve silver bowls, and twelve gold dishes. ⁸⁵ Each silver plate weighed about ·three and one-fourth pounds [^L130 shekels], and each bowl weighed about ·one and three-fourths pounds [^L70 shekels]. All the silver plates and silver bowls together weighed about ·sixty pounds [^L2,400 shekels] according to a weight set by the Holy Place measure. ⁸⁶ The twelve gold dishes filled with incense weighed ·four ounces [^L10 shekels] each, according to the weight set by the Holy Place measure. Together the gold dishes weighed about ·three pounds [^L120 shekels]. ⁸⁷ The total number of animals for the burnt offering [Lev. 1:1–17] was twelve bulls, twelve ·male sheep [rams], and twelve male lambs a year old. There was also a ·grain [^Lgift; tribute] offering [Lev. 2:1], and there were twelve male goats for a ·sin [or purification; Lev. 4:3] offering. ⁸⁸ The total number of animals for the ·fellowship [or peace; well-being] offering [Lev. 3:1] was twenty-four bulls, sixty ·male sheep [rams], sixty male goats, and sixty male lambs a year old.
