48. Altar of gold. This was the altar of incense, which was placed before the veil (1 Kings 6:20, 22; Ex. 30:1-10).
Table of gold. The table of shewbread (see Ex. 25:23-28; 37:10-15). When David turned over to Solomon the materials he had gathered for the Temple, he gave him gold for the “tables of shewbread” (1 Chron. 28:16). According to 2 Chron. 4:8, 19, there were ten tables, five on the north side and five on the south side of the room. The ten tables were evidently at times referred to as one, as is indicated by the fact that Chronicles speaks of the table of shewbread not only in the plural, as above, but also in the singular (2 Chron. 13:11; 29:18).
