Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“He overlaid the inside with six hundred talents of fine gold.”
(2 Chronicles 3:8)

That’s a lot of gold, Jesus.

23 tons.
Wow.

And no ordinary gold.
Fine gold.

The current price of gold is $1,683 per ounce

There are 32,000 ounces in a ton.

So Solomon overlaid the inside of Your Most Holy Place

in Your Temple in Jerusalem with

with 1 billion
238 million
688 thousand dollars worth of gold.

A little chintzy…but I guess that’s the best he could do.
