“The golden spoons were twelve, full of incense, weighing ten shekels apiece, after the shekel of the sanctuary: all the gold of the spoons was an hundred and twenty shekels.”
the twelve gold dishes, full of incense, weighed ten shekels each, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; all the gold of the dishes was one hundred twenty shekels — twelve gold dishes at ten shekels each total 120 shekels of gold. Gold, more precious than silver, is reserved for the incense-vessels. Incense's aromatic fragrance symbolizes prayers rising to God from all twelve tribes in equal measure.
