And the basons, and the firepans, and the bowls, and the caldrons, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the cups; that which was of gold in gold, and that which was of silver in silver, took the captain of the guard away.
That which was of gold in gold - implying that the articles were of solid gold and silver respectively, not of a different metal inside, or alloyed (Grotius). The captain of the guard took them away whole, not breaking them, as was done to the brass (Jeremiah 52:17).
