Exodus 26:8 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 26:8

The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the
breadth of one curtain four cubits
The breadth of them is the same with the linen curtains, but the length of them two cubits more; the reason of which was, that they might hang down lower on either side, and the better preserve them from any injury:

and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure;
as to length and breadth.
