“And some of the chief of the fathers gave to the treasure of the work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pound of silver.”
Additional giving is recorded: "And some of the heads of ancestral houses gave into the work fund twenty thousand darics of gold and two thousand two hundred minas of silver." The collective contribution from multiple family heads (20,000 gold darics and 2,200 silver minas) indicates widespread voluntary support for the temple restoration. The substantial amounts suggest that the returnee community possessed significant financial resources and was willing to commit them to religious restoration.
