Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerses 14, 15. - The general meaning of these verses is that, if the question were one of gold, or one of silver, David assigned for each vessel and each part of the candlesticks, the proportionate weight of gold that was to be employed.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) He gave of gold by weight for things of gold.--The Hebrew is very concise. Apparently it continues the construction of 1Chronicles 28:12, so that the sense is: "He gave him a pattern or description for the golden vessels (literally, for the gold), by the weight for the golden vessels (Heb., for the gold), for all vessels of each kind of service (i.e., use); and he gave him a pattern for all the silver vessels, by weight, for all vessels of each kind of service." In other words, David gave Solomon an account or schedule of all the different vessels of gold and silver that would be required for the sanctuary, specifying the exact weight of each. (Comp. Ezra 8:25, seq. Ezra 8:34.)
