the weight of all the gold articles
on 1 Chronicles 28:14-18
The gold and silver are listed down to the weight of every lampstand, table, fork, bowl and dish. The list ends with “the chariot of the gold cherubim”, David's name for the two large cherubim. Matthew Henry ties the name to Psalm 68, where the angels are God's chariots.
This site's exposition
each table of showbread
Gold is weighed for each table of showbread, and silver for the silver tables. John Wesley notes that several tables served the showbread. One stood above the rest and is usually called the table of showbread.
