A Foundation of Redemption
Commentators highlight that these forty silver sockets formed the literal foundation of the Tabernacle. Each socket weighed a talent (around 94-115 lbs), making the foundation incredibly solid and valuable. John Gill specifies this silver came from the atonement money given by the people, signifying that God's dwelling was established upon the redemption of His people.
