We then come to the court with its pillars, hooks and bands and the linen hangings, the screens and pegs (v9-20) as the pattern was laid down by God in Exodus 27:9-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ithamar, the son of Aaron was given the responsibility to count the inventory for the Levites who were responsible for the service and managing the materials. Bezalel and Aholiab were in charge. There was the gold (v24); silver (v25-28); the bronze (v29-31). It has been estimated that by present day value it would have amounted to around \u00a314million.
