The Hebrew root word for "gave" is "נָתַן" (natan), which means to give, bestow, or grant. This act of giving is a reflection of their devotion and commitment to God.

The Daric (Greek, ????????) was a Persian gold coin, value about 1 2s., first struck by the great Darius, son of Hystaspes (B.C. 521-485). It remained current in Western Asia long after the fall of the Persian Empire. The Hebrew word ('?darkonim) occurs again only once, viz., at Ezra 8:27, where it clearly means Darics, and is so rendered by the Syriac (d?rik-ne). The darkon (or darbon) is mentioned in the Talmud as a Persian coin. The chronicler, or his authority, has evidently substituted a familiar modern term for some ancient expression of value. No real coins are mentioned in Scripture before the age of the exile. Silver ten thousand talents.--About 4,000,000 in modern value (see 1Kings 10:21; 1Kings 10:27); or, according to Schrader, who argues from Assyrian data, 3,750,000. The value of the bronze and the iron must have been much greater then than now. (See Note on 1Chronicles 22:14.) Verse 7. - The Authorized Version translation drams occurs also twice in Ezra and twice in Nehemiah. There is no doubt that the coin referred to is the Persian daric, with which the Jews became familiar during the time of their exile. The Hebrew word appears in three different forms.1. As אֲדַרְכְּמון; here and Ezra 8:27. 2. As דַּרְכְּמון; Ezra 2:69; Nehemiah 7:70-72. 3. As דַּכְרוֹן; in rabbinical writings, but not in Scripture. . . .
