Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.
The treasure being carried to Jerusalem for the temple included twenty basins of gold and two vessels of fine copper esteemed as valuable as gold. The basins were reckoned at a thousand drams, marking them as a costly and carefully counted portion of the offering. This wealth was not carried loosely but was weighed out and placed in the charge of responsible priests chosen for the task. Their commission was to transport it safely to Jerusalem and to guard it there as a holy offering set apart to God.
