Reading Numbers Chapter 7 Offerings at the Dedication of the Tabernacle. Each tribe brought offerings including "one silver plate weighing 130 shekels and one silver bowl weighing seventy shekels… one gold dish weighing ten shekels…"

Ratio 20 ounces of silver/ one ounce of gold

Our original money included one silver certificate redeemable for an once of silver and a twenty dollar gold certificate redeemable for an once of gold.

Is the loss of our historical Biblical roots why we find ourselves locked out of our churches now?
