Exodus 26:24 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 26:24

And they shall be coupled together beneath
At the bottom of the boards or planks:

and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one
ring
at the top of the boards there was a ring, to which they were coupled and fastened, and so at the bottom of them, though not expressed: some understand this of all the planks, both at the two sides and at the west end; but it seems rather to respect only the corner planks, since it follows:

thus shall it be for them both, they shall be for the two corners;
which were coupled and joined alike at each corner as if they were twins, as the word used signifies; or the meaning is, that these were double boards, and so like twins, which were so closely put together that they seemed but one board; which was done that the corners might be thicker and stronger, and so for the greater firmness of the building.

Exodus 26:24 In-Context

22 You must make six frames for the rear or west end of the Holy Tent

23 and two frames for each corner at the rear.

24 The two frames are to be doubled at the bottom and joined at the top with a metal ring. Both corner frames must be made this way.

25 So there will be a total of eight frames at the rear of the Tent, and there will be sixteen silver bases -- two bases under each frame.

26 "Make crossbars of acacia wood to connect the upright frames of the Holy Tent. Make five crossbars to hold the frames together on one side
