Category:Beaten Gold

---excerpt from the Illustrated Bible Dictionary

Beaten Gold - In Numbers 8:4, means "turned" or rounded work in gold. The Greek Version, however, renders the word "sold gold;" the Revised Version, "beaten work of gold." In 1 Kings 10:16, 1 Kings 10:17, 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."
