Bronze/Copper

Copper was used for making tools, furnishings for the temple and tabernacle, and weapons. It was “smelted from ore” as Job discussed with his friends. Many of the outside furnishings for the tabernacle were bronze, which was made from copper and tin. King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had a dream in which he saw a statue made of gold, silver, bronze, and iron. This statue was a symbol of the nations that rose to power.
