Thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
The count given here is only part of the larger total of temple vessels brought back from Babylon, naming thirty basins of gold, four hundred and ten basins of silver of a second or different kind, and a thousand other vessels. Those basins and vessels were the sacred furnishings that Nebuchadnezzar had carried away from Jerusalem and stored in the house of his gods. Cyrus restored them by ordering them to be counted out and formally delivered to Sheshbazzar to be carried back to Jerusalem with the returning exiles. In this way the holy articles were given back for service in the house of God that was to be rebuilt at Jerusalem.
