Rashi
במראות הצובאות. בנות ישראל היו בידן מראות, שרואות בהן כשהן מתקשטות, ואף אותן לא עכבו מלהביא לנדבת המשכן, והיה מואס משה בהן, מפני שעשוים ליצר הרע, אמר לו הקב"ה קבל, כי אלו חביבין עלי מן הכל, שעל ידיהם העמידו הנשים צבאות רבות במצרים, כשהיו בעליהם יגעים בעבודת פרך, היו הולכות ומוליכות להם מאכל ומשתה ומאכילות אותם, ונוטלות המראות, וכל אחת רואה עצמה עם בעלה במראה, ומשדלתו בדברים, לומר אני נאה ממך, ומתוך כך מביאות לבעליהם לידי תאוה, ונזקקות להם, ומתעברות ויולדות שם, שנאמר תַּחַת הַתַּפּוּחַ עֹורַרְתִּיךָ (שיר השירים ח, ה), וזה שנאמר במראות הצובאות, ונעשה הכיור מהם, שהוא לשום שלום בין איש לאשתו, להשקות ממים שבתוכו למי שקנא לה בעלה ונסתרה, ותדע לך שהן מראות ממש, שהרי נאמר ונחשת התנופה שבעים ככר וגו' ויעש בה וגו', וכיור וכנו לא הוזכרו שם, למדת, שלא היה נחשת של כיור מנחשת התנופה, כך דרש רבי תנחומא (פקודי ט), וכן תרגם אונקלוס בְּמֶחְזְיַת נְשַׁיָא, והוא תרגום של מראות, מירוא"ש בלע"ז (שפיעגעל), וכן מצינו בישעיה (ג, כג), וְהַגִּלְיֹנִים, מתרגמינן וּמֶחְזְיָתָא:
From the mirrors of the women who had gathered. The daughters of Israel possessed mirrors into which they would look when adorning themselves. Even those they did not withhold from bringing as a contribution for the mishkon. However, Moshe found them repulsive since their purpose is to incite the evil inclination. God said to him: Accept [them], for these are dearer to me than everything else because through them the women raised huge multitudes in Egypt. When their husbands were exhausted from their crushing labor they (the women) would go and bring them food and drink and feed them. They would then take the mirrors and each one would look at herself and her husband in the mirror, and entice him with words, saying, “See! I am more beautiful than you,” thereby awakening their husbands’ desire and they would cohabit with them. They conceived and gave birth there. As is stated: “Under the apple-tree did I arouse you.” That is the intent of what is said: “By the mirrors of the צֹבְאוֹת .” The wash-basin was made out of them for it serves to bring about peace between a man and his wife, by giving to drink from the waters inside it to anyone whose husband expressed jealousy and she, nevertheless, concealed herself [with another man]. You can know yourself that these were actual mirrors, for it is stated: “The total copper donation was seventy kikar, etc. and he made from it, etc.” whereas the wash-basin and its base are not mentioned there. Hence you have learned that the copper of the wash-basin was not from the donated copper. Thus did Rabbi Tanchuma explain it. Onkelos also translates it this way: בְמֶחְזְיַת of the women [בְּמֶחְזְיַת] being the Aramaic for “mirrors,” mireors in Old French. We find the like in Yeshaiyahu: “וְהַגִּלְיֹנִים — “and the mirrors” which is translated מֶחְזְיָתָא .
אשר צבאו. להביא נדבתן:
Who had gathered — to bring their contribution.

Rashi
אלה פקודי. בפרשה זו נמנו כל משקלי נדבת המשכן לכסף ולזהב ולנחשת, ונמנו כל כליו לכל עבודתו:
These are the accounts. In this parsha there are enumerated all the weights of the contributions to the mishkon — of the silver, the gold and the copper. Also all its vessels are enumerated each with its function.
המשכן משכן. שני פעמים, רמז למקדש שנתמשכן בשני חורבנין על עונותיהן של ישראל:
The mishkon, the mishkon. “מִשְׁכָּן” is mentioned twice. This is an allusion to the Beis Hamikdosh (שֶׁנִתְמַשְׁכֵּן) which was taken as “collateral” by being destroyed twice because of the iniquities of Yisrael.
משכן העדות. עדות לישראל שויתר להם הקב"ה על מעשה העגל, שהרי השרה שכינתו ביניהם:

Rashi
ובצלאל בן אורי וגו' עשה אל כל אשר צוה ה' את משה. אשר צוה אותו משה אין כתיב כאן, אלא כל אשר צוה ה' את משה, אפילו דברים שלא אמר לו רבו, הסכימה דעתו למה שנאמר למשה בסיני, כי משה צוה לבצלאל לעשות תחלה כלים ואחר כך משכן, (לא לענין צווי להתנדב קאמר, דהא אדרבה להיפך צוה הקב"ה בפרשת תרומה, מתחלה הכלים שלחן מנורה יריעות, ואחר כך ציווי הקרשים, וציווי משה רבינו ע"ה ריש ויקהל, תחלה המשכן ואהלו ואחר כך הכלים, הא מיירי לענין ציווי לפועל איך יפעול כסדר, ותמצא בפרשת כי תשא ראה קראתי בשם בצלאל וגו', הוזכר מתחלה את אהל מועד, ואחר כך הכלים, אבל לענין להתנדב להכין מה שיהיו צריכין, מה לי מה שמתנדב תחלה, ועיין בתוספות פרק הרואה (ברכות נה.). ואם תאמר מנלן שמשה רבינו ע"ה צוה לבצלאל הפך הענין, ויש לומר, כיון דכתיב בפרשת ויקהל ויקרא משה אל בצלאל ואל אהליאב וגו', וקצר מה שדיבר עמהם, והאי קרא מדכתיב כל אשר צוה ה' את משה, חזינן דהיה מצוה להם בהיפוך. ודוק היטב). אמר לו בצלאל מנהג העולם לעשות תחלה בית ואחר כך משים כלים בתוכו, אמר לו כך שמעתי מפי הקב"ה, אמר משה, בצל אל היית, כי וודאי כך צוה לי הקב"ה, וכן עשה, המשכן תחלה ואחר כך עשה כלים:
Betzalel, son of Uri, etc. made all that Adonoy commanded Moshe. “That which he (Moshe) commanded him (Betzalel) is not written here, but, rather, “all that God commanded Moshe,” [thereby implying that] even things which his teacher (Moshe) had not told him, his own opinion was in agreement with what was said to Moshe at Sinai. For Moshe had instructed Betzalel to first produce the vessels, and afterward the mishkon. Whereupon Betzalel said to him: “It is customary in the world to first construct a house and afterwards put furnishings in it.” [Moshe] responded to him: “[You are right] that is indeed what I heard from God.” Moshe [then also] said to him “You must have been (בְּצֵל אֵ־ל) in the shadow of God, for, certainly, so did God command me.” And so he (Betzalel) did it — first the mishkon and afterwards he made the vessels.
וְאִתּוֹ אׇהֳלִיאָב בֶּן־אֲחִיסָמָךְ לְמַטֵּה־דָן חָרָשׁ וְחֹשֵׁב וְרֹקֵם בַּתְּכֵלֶת וּבָֽאַרְגָּמָן וּבְתוֹלַעַת הַשָּׁנִי וּבַשֵּֽׁשׁ׃ {ס}

All the gold that was used for the work in all the work of the Sanctuary. The gold donated as a wave offering amounted to twenty-nine kikar and seven hundred and thirty shekel, (measured) by the Sanctuary standard.
Rashi
ככר. ששים מנה, ומנה של קדש כפול היה, הרי הככר ק"כ מנה, והמנה כ"ה סלעים, הרי ככר של קדש שלשת אלפים שקלים, לפיכך מנה בִּפְרוֹטְרוֹט כל השקלים שפחותין במנינם מג' אלפים, שאין מגיעין לככר:
Kikar. A kikar is the equivalent of 60 maneh and the maneh associated with the Sanctuary was double [the weight of a common maneh] making the kikar equal to 120 [common] maneh, A maneh is equal to 25 selaim (shekalim), making the kikar of the Sanctuary 3,000 shekalim (25 x 120 = 3,000). It is for this reason that it counts as units all the shekalim that add up to less than 3,000, because they do not add up to a kikar.
וְכֶסֶף פְּקוּדֵי הָעֵדָה מְאַת כִּכָּר וְאֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע מֵאוֹת וַחֲמִשָּׁה וְשִׁבְעִים שֶׁקֶל בְּשֶׁקֶל הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃

Rashi
בקע. הוא שם משקל של מחצית השקל:
Beka. This is the name of the weight of one half of a shekel.
לשש מאות אלף וגו'. כך היו ישראל, וכך עלה מנינם אחר שהוקם המשכן בספר במדבר, ואף עתה בנדבת המשכן כך היו, ומנין חצאי השקלים של שש מאות אלף, עולה מאת ככר כל אחד של שלשת אלפים שקלים, כיצד, שש מאות אלף חצאין הרי הן ג' מאות, אלף שלימים, הרי מאת ככר, והשלשת אלפים וחמש מאות וחמשים חצאין, עולין אלף ושבע מאות וחמשה ושבעים שקלים:
For six hundred (and three) thousand, etc. This was the count of the Israelites and this, too, was what their number amounted to after the mishkon was erected [when they were counted again] in seifer Bamidbar. Now, too, at the time of the contributions to the mishkon they were that many. The amount of half-shekalim for 600,000 totalled 100 kikar, where each kikar is 3,000 shekalim. How is this calculated? 600,000 half-shekels, which equal 300,000 whole shekalim giving you 100 kikar (100 x 3,000 = 300,000). The remaining 3,550 half-shekalim total 1,775 whole shekalim.
וַיְהִי מְאַת כִּכַּר הַכֶּסֶף לָצֶקֶת אֵת אַדְנֵי הַקֹּדֶשׁ וְאֵת אַדְנֵי הַפָּרֹכֶת מְאַת אֲדָנִים לִמְאַת הַכִּכָּר כִּכָּר לָאָֽדֶן׃

Rashi
לצקת. כתרגומו לְאַתָּכָא:

את אדני הקדש. של קרשי המשכן, שהם מ"ח קרשים, ולהן צ"ו אדנים, ואדני פרכת ארבעה, הרי מאה, וכל שאר האדנים נחשת כתיב בהם:
The sockets for the Sanctuary. — for the planks of the mishkon, which totalled 48 planks for which there were 96 sockets, plus the 4 sockets for the curtain giving you a total of 100 [gold sockets]. As for the remaining sockets the Torah records them as “copper.”
וְאֶת־הָאֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע הַמֵּאוֹת וַחֲמִשָּׁה וְשִׁבְעִים עָשָׂה וָוִים לָעַמּוּדִים וְצִפָּה רָאשֵׁיהֶם וְחִשַּׁק אֹתָֽם׃

Rashi
וצפה ראשיהם. של עמודים מהן, שבכולן כתיב וצפה ראשיהם וחשוקיהם כסף:
(He) overlaid their caps — of the pillars with them (the 1775 shekalim), for regarding all of them (the pillars) it is written: “And their caps and bands were overlaid with silver.”
