Verse 16. Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold] I have already conjectured that the tsinnah might resemble the Highland targe or target, with a dagger projecting from the UMBO or centre.

Verse 17. He made three hundred shields] The magen was a large shield by which the whole body was protected.

Mr. Reynolds computes that the two hundred targets, on each of which were employed three hundred shekels of gold, were worth �28,131 16s. 9 1/2d.

And the three hundred shields, in forming each of which three pounds of gold were employed, were worth �210,976 7s. 7d.
