Thoughts And Things Of The Bible -- Beaten Gold
In Num. 8:4, the words "beaten gold" mean
"turned" or rounded work in gold. The Greek Version, however,
renders the word "solid gold;" the Revised Version,
"beaten work of gold." In 1 Kings 10:16, 17, it probably means
"mixed" gold, as the word ought to be rendered, i.e., not pure
gold. Others render the word in these places "thin plates of
gold."
