Exodus 26
26
Curtains of Linen
1“Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle (sacred tent of worship) with ten [interior] curtains of fine twisted linen, and blue, purple, and scarlet fabric; you shall make them with [embroidered] cherubim, the handwork of a skillful craftsman. 2The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; all of the curtains shall measure the same. 3The five curtains shall be joined to one another, and the other five curtains shall be joined to one another. 4You shall make loops of blue on the outer edge of the last curtain in the first set, and likewise in the second set. 5You shall make fifty loops on the one curtain, and fifty loops on the edge of the last curtain that is in the second set. The loops on one curtain correspond to the loops on the other. 6You shall make fifty gold hooks, and fasten the curtains together with the hooks; and the tabernacle shall be one unit.
Curtains of Goats’ Hair
7“Then you shall make [exterior] curtains of goats’ hair as a tent over the tabernacle. You shall make eleven curtains in all. 8Each curtain shall be thirty cubits long and four cubits wide. The eleven curtains shall all measure the same. 9You shall join five curtains by themselves and the other six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the sixth curtain at the front of the tent [to make a closed door]. 10Make fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set, and fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set.
11“You shall make fifty bronze hooks and put the hooks into the loops and join the tent together so that it may be one unit. 12The overlapping part that is left over from the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over, shall lap over the back of the tabernacle. 13The cubit on one side and the cubit on the other, of what is left over in the length of the curtains of the tent shall lap over the sides of the tabernacle on one side and the other side, to cover it. 14You shall make a third covering for the tent of rams’ #26:14 Similar to morocco leather.skins dyed red, and a fourth covering above that of #26:14 Hebrew uncertain.porpoise skins.
Boards and Sockets
15“Then you shall make the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing upright [as a trellis-like frame]. 16The length of each board shall be ten cubits and the width of each board shall be one and a half cubits. 17Make two dovetails in each board for fitting [them] together; you shall do the same for all the tabernacle boards. 18You shall make the boards for the tabernacle [in the following quantities]: twenty boards for the south side. 19You shall make forty silver sockets under the twenty boards, two sockets under each board for its two dovetails, and two sockets under another board for its two dovetails; 20for the north side of the tabernacle there shall be twenty boards, 21and their forty silver sockets, two sockets under each board. 22For the back or west side of the tabernacle you shall make six boards. 23Make two boards for the corners of the tabernacle at the rear [on both sides]. 24They shall be joined together underneath, and joined together on top with one ring. So shall it be for both of them; they shall form the two [rear] corners. 25There shall be eight boards and sixteen silver sockets; two sockets under each board.
26“Then you shall make [fifteen] bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of one side of the tabernacle, 27and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the rear end of the tabernacle, for the back wall toward the west. 28And the middle bar in the center of the boards shall pass through [horizontally] from end to end. 29You shall overlay the boards with gold and make their rings of gold to hold the bars. You shall overlay the bars with gold. 30You shall erect the tabernacle according to its plan [the direction corresponding to its meaning and purpose] which has been shown to you on the mountain.
The Veil and Screen
31“You shall make a veil [to divide the two rooms] of blue, purple, and scarlet fabric and fine twisted linen, skillfully worked with cherubim on it. 32You shall hang it on four pillars (support poles) of acacia wood overlaid with gold, with gold hooks, on four silver sockets. 33You shall hang the veil from the hooks [that connect the curtains together], and you shall bring the ark of the Testimony there within the veil. The veil shall separate for you the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies. 34You shall put the #26:34 See note 25:17.mercy seat on the ark of the Testimony in the Holy of Holies. 35You shall set the table [for the bread] outside the veil [in the Holy Place] on the north side, and the lampstand opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle.
36“You shall make a screen [to provide a covering] for the doorway of the tent of blue, purple, and scarlet fabric and finely woven [embroidered] linen, the work of an embroiderer. [John 10:9] 37You shall make five pillars (support poles) of acacia wood to support the hanging curtain and overlay them with gold. Their hooks shall be of gold, and you shall cast five [base] sockets of bronze for them.
