Commentary
3 notes on this verseThis site's exposition
The bronze from the wave offering totaled 70 talents
on Exodus 38:29-31
The bronze total closes the audit, running from the altar down to the tent pegs. The three metals fall by distance from the ark, gold within the veil, silver in the foundations and fittings, bronze in the courtyard.

the bases for the surrounding courtyard
John Gill counts sixty bronze bases around the courtyard. Verses 10 to 19 give that total, twenty each on the south and north, ten on the west, three, three and four on the east.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice
And the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate,.... These were also of brass, in all sixty: and all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about; the pins for the curtains of the tabernacle, and for the hangings of the court; see Exo 27:19.
