The Math / Science

The Biblical weight of a talent is equal to approximately 34 kilograms (~ 75 pounds). To compute the current value of gold, one uses the following equation:

Gold Value = weight • %pure • Gold SPOT PRICE

where:

Gold Value = The current value of gold content
weight = The weight of gold item
%pure = Percent of purity of the gold (e.g. 24k gold is 100% pure)
Gold SPOT PRICE = The current market value of pure gold bullion.

Therefore, the Value of Two Talents = 2 • 34 kilograms • 100% • Gold SPOT PRICE TODAY
