Gifts for the Temple(A)
68 When they arrived at the Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem, some of the heads of the families contributed toward building the Temple of God on its former site. 69 They contributed to the treasury for this work in accordance with their ability: 61,000 golden drachma, 5,000 units[a] of silver, and 100 priestly robes. 70 As a result, the priests, descendants of Levi, certain people, the singers, door-keepers, and the Temple Servants were able to settle in their original cities, with the rest of the Israelis in their cities.
