And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him.
His spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron] That is, his spear's head was of iron, and it weighed six hundred shekels; this, according to the former computation, would amount to eighteen pounds twelve ounces.
And one bearing a shield] hnxh hatstsinnah, from xmb[r tsan, pointed or penetrating, if it do not mean some kind of a lance, must mean a shield, with what is called the umbo, a sharp protuberance, in the middle, with which they could as effectually annoy their enemies as defend themselves. Many of the old Highland targets were made with a projecting dagger in the center. Taking the proportions of things unknown to those known, the armour of Goliath is supposed to have weighed not less than twohundred and seventy-two pounds thirteen ounces! Plutarch informs us that the ordinary weight of a soldier's panoply, or complete armour, was one talent, or sixty pounds; and that one Alcimus, in the army of Demetrius, was considered as a prodigy, because his panoply weighed two talents, or one hundred and twenty pounds.

The term"weavers' beam" has nothing to do with size. The weavers' beam was a comparatively small rod which was passed between the threads of a weave, carrying the cross-thread with it.

Throwing spears could be launched with a thong wound around the shaft, giving greater range, and imparting a spin which stabilised the spear in flight, providing greater accuracy. Only experienced warriors would have had this ability.
