{2 Kings 12:10} And it was x1961 [so], when they saw 7200 z8800 that x3588 [there was] much 7227 money 3701 in the chest, 727 that the king's 4428 scribe 5608 z8802 and the high 1419 priest 3548 came up, 5927 z8799 and they put up in bags, 6696 z8799 and told 4487 z8799 x853 the money 3701 that was found 4672 z8737 in the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068

the king's:
"And he sentª °¹ Eliakim,ª which¹ [was] over¹ the household,ª and Shebnaª the scribe,ª ° and the eldersª of the priests,ª coveredª ° with sackcloth,ª to¹ Isaiahª the prophetª the sonª of Amoz.ª" {2Kg 19:2} + "And it came to pass¹ in the eighteenthª ª yearª of kingª Josiah,ª [that] the kingª sentª °¹ Shaphanª the sonª of Azaliah,ª the sonª of Meshullam,ª the scribe,ª ° to the houseª of the LORD,ª saying,ª °" {2Kg 22:3} + "And the kingª commandedª °¹ Hilkiahª the priest,ª and Ahikamª the sonª of Shaphan,ª and Achborª the sonª of Michaiah,ª and Shaphanª the scribe,ª ° and Asahiahª a servantª of the king's,ª saying,ª °" {2Kg 22:12} + "And Zadokª the sonª of Ahitub,ª and Ahimelechª the sonª of Abiathar,ª [were] the priests;ª and Seraiahª [was] the scribe;ª °" {2Sm 8:17} + "And Shevaª ² ° [was] scribe:ª ° and Zadokª and Abiatharª [were] the priests:ª" {2Sm 20:25}

put up:
Heb. bound up, "And Naamanª said,ª ° Be content,ª ° takeª ° two talents.ª And he urgedª ° him, and boundª ° two² talentsª of silverª in twoª bags,ª with twoª changesª of garments,ª and laidª ° [them] upon¹ twoª of his servants;ª and they bareª ° [them] beforeª him." {2Kg 5:23}

in bags:
Sir J. Chardin informs us, "it is a custom of Persia always to seal up bags of money; and the money of the king's treasure is not told, but is received by bags sealed up." These are what are called in the East purses; each of which, as Maillet informs us, contains money to the amount of 1,500 livres, or about 63�. of our money. The money thus collected for the reparation of the temple, seems, in like manner, to have been reckoned in bags of equal value to each other; as we can scarcely imagine the placing it in bags would otherwise have been mentioned. The value of a Jewish purse is unknown; but the bags mentioned in "And Naamanª said,ª ° Be content,ª ° takeª ° two talents.ª And he urgedª ° him, and boundª ° two² talentsª of silverª in twoª bags,ª with twoª changesª of garments,ª and laidª ° [them] upon¹ twoª of his servants;ª and they bareª ° [them] beforeª him." {2Kg 5:23}, amounted to a talent.
