and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;

KJV

And by weight he gave gold for the tables of shewbread, for every table; and likewise silver for the tables of silver:

Commentary

And by weight he gave gold for the tables of shewbread, for every table,.... For though there were but one table for the she wbread in the tabernacle of Moses, there were ten in the temple of Solomon, Ch2 4:8 and each of them contained one hundred pounds in weight (u): and likewise silver for the tables of silver; these were placed in the court, as Jarchi thinks, on which they flayed the sacrifices; or, as Kimchi, on which they slew them, and laid the flesh of the burnt offerings on them, which he gathers from Eze 40:39 . (u) Jacob Leon, ibid. (Relation of Memorable Things in the Tabernacle and Temple, ch. 4. p. 20.)
