Exodus 38:25

And the silver of them that were numbered of the
congregation
This was not the offering of silver, ( Exodus 35:24 ) but what was collected in numbering the people, where everyone of twenty years old and upwards paid half a shekel, ( Exodus 30:12-15 ) the sum

[was] an hundred talents, one thousand seven hundred and threescore
fifteen shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary;
which, according to Brerewood ^F17, make of our money, 37,721 pounds, seventeen shillings, and six pence; according to Waserus ^F18, the whole amounted to 150,887 dollars and a half: and so, according to Lundius ^F19, the sum is so many imperials, and forty five creutzers or cross pennies.
