1 Sam. 13:20      1 Sam. 13:22

First Samuel 13:21

And the price for sharpening was a fim [2/3 shekel – 8 grams; probably a silver coin] for the plowshare and for the plow iron and for the three-pronged forks and for the axes and for setting the spurs. [Previous translations stated that the Hebr. word fim was a misspelling of the letter pe (the word for mouth). Now the word fim has been found in inscriptions on several weights. This also describes the beginning of the Iron Age in Israel (around 1200 BC). Iron was known before that, but the process of cooling it in water was mastered by the Philistines, and produced stronger swords than those made of bronze by the Israelites.]
