SPECIAL NOTE:

[ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no days will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ]


     Explanation: In Exodus 26, the LORD continues to give Moses instructions concerning the construction of the Tabernacle, and its typology deepens. The workmen were to make ten curtains with cherubim woven it. They were to be coupled to one another in sets of five, with fifty loops of blue on the outermost of the curtains in each set (1-6).
     The Tabernacle was to be covered with eleven curtains of goat's hair, with five in one set and six in the other, each set having fifty loops on the outermost curtains (7-10).
     They were to make fifty clasps of bronze and put them through the loops to unify the Tabernacle; and the curtains were to be long enough to hang over the back and sides of the Tabernacle (11-14).
     The frames (or boards) for the Tabernacle were to be ten cubits long and made of acacia wood. Each one was to have two tenons (projecting pieces for insertion into a mortise or groove). Twenty frames were to be made for the south and north sides of the Tabernacle; and each frame was to sit on two bases of silver. Six frames were to be put on the rear (west side) of the Tabernacle with two additional frames (v. 23) -- (probably set at right angles and attached to the last of the boards on each of the sides, forming a double board at that point). These were to be separated at the bottom but joined at the top (15-25).
     The sides and back were to be connected by five bars running along each side. (26-30).
      They were to make a veil of blue, purple, and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen with cherubim designed in. It was to separate the Holy Place of the Tabernacle from the Most Holy Place; and the Ark and its Mercy Seat was to be within the veil. Outside the veil was to be the Table of Showbread on the north side and the Lampstand on the south side (31-35).
     The workmen were to make an embroidered hanging (or screen) for the door of the Tabernacle made of blue, purple, and scarlet threads and fine twined linen. It was to be hung on gold hooks attached to five pillars of gold-covered acacia which were to sit in five sockets of brass (36-37).

RESOURCES

PLEASE NOTE: Use the resources on this and other sites thoughtfully, particularly the commentaries and encyclopedias. I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

     1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen [fine linen being-corded], and blue, and purple, and scarlet [scarlet worm]: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them. 2 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure. 3 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to another. 4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain, in the coupling of the second. 5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold one of another. 6 And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle.
     7 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make. 8 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure. 9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle. 10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.
     11 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one. 12 And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle. 13 And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it. 14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering above of badgers' skins.
     15 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board. 17 Two tenons shall there be in one board, set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle. 18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward. 19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons. 20 And for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty boards: 21 And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. 22 And for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards. 23 And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides. 24 And they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two corners. 25 And they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
     26 And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, 27 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward. 28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end. 29 And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold. 30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.
     31 And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet [scarlet worm], and fine twined linen [fine linen being-corded] of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made: 32 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver. 33 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy [holy of holies]. 34 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy [holy of holies] place. 35 And thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side.
     36 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet [scarlet worm], and fine twined linen [fine linen being-corded], wrought with needlework [handiwork of embroidering]. 37 And thou shalt make for the hanging] five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.
