1 Kings 10:16
Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold - I have already conjectured that the tsinnah might resemble the Highland targe or target, with a dagger projecting from the Umbo or center.
Solomon’s Great Wealth
14 The weight of gold that came to Solomon yearly was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
15 besides that from the atraveling merchants, from the income of traders, bfrom all the kings of Arabia, and from the governors of the country.
16 And King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield.
17 He also made athree hundred shields of hammered gold; three minas of gold went into each shield. The king put them in the bHouse of the Forest of Lebanon.
18 aMoreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.
19 The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round at the back; there were armrests on either side of the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the armrests.
