Perhaps you are referring to the long winded version of the Bible where every thing is expanded to match modern aspirations?
Gold Shovels at Temple groundbreaking events.

Not gold shovels, but yellow. Another ground breaking for a new temple recently.

So, African temples get yellow shovels and American temples get gold ones. Glad that’s sorted.MG 2.0 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 01, 2022 1:15 am

Seriously, article cited by the OP says nothing about gold shovels. The shovels shown in the photo appear to be painted a gold color, but that’s a far cry from a gold shovel. There are online ads for ceremonial groundbreaking shovels. The shovels shown in the photo resemble ones for sale described as “gold painted.” They don’t appear to me to be shiny enough to be even “gold plated.” And I didn’t see any advertised as made of gold, which would be pretty goofy for digging and lots more expensive than the ads I saw.
I’m not convinced that the photo shows “gold shovels.”

Re: Gold Shovels at Temple groundbreaking events.
I am certain the shovels aren’t gold, or gold plated. Gold is expensive and soft - makes a terrible instrument for digging in rocky earth.

Real gold will be reserved for the Temple executive bathroom fixtures. Extravagance for the Lord must be limited to necessary use.

Re: Gold Shovels at Temple groundbreaking events.
If the shovels were painted red, they would be described as Red Shovels. They’re gold in colour, therefore Gold Shovels is an accurate description. Nowhere did I state or make the claim that they were made from gold. The point in the OP is about having a special moments for a select few.

Re: Gold Shovels at Temple groundbreaking events.
Given the context, I don't think the distinction between "gold shovels" and "gold painted shovels" is hair splitting. The use of ceremonial shovels for ground breaking ceremonies is a very common tradition. As shown in MG 2.0's photo, the children in Africa at a temple groundbreaking ceremony are also using ceremonial shovels. You chose to emphasize the "gold" part in a way that, in my opinion, was misleading.IHAQ wrote: ↑Thu Sep 01, 2022 10:00 amIf the shovels were painted red, they would be described as Red Shovels.
