Theological / Devotional

All the gold. “All the gold” would weigh a little more than 2,204 lb. (1000 kg.). This would make a cube of gold about 14⅓ in. (37.25 cm.) on a side. Gold was abundant in Egypt, being imported from Ethiopia. Much gold also came into the land of the Pharaohs as tribute from subject nations.
