Exodus 36:9-19

9 quarum una habebat in longitudine viginti octo cubitos et in latitudine quattuor una mensura erat omnium cortinarum

10 coniunxitque cortinas quinque alteram alteri et alias quinque sibi invicem copulavit

11 fecit et ansas hyacinthinas in ora cortinae unius ex utroque latere et in ora cortinae alterius similiter

12 ut contra se invicem venirent ansae et mutuo iungerentur

13 unde et quinquaginta fudit circulos aureos qui morderent cortinarum ansas et fieret unum tabernaculum

14 fecit et saga undecim de pilis caprarum ad operiendum tectum tabernaculi

15 unum sagum habebat in longitudine cubitos triginta et in latitudine cubitos quattuor unius mensurae erant omnia saga

16 quorum quinque iunxit seorsum et sex alia separatim

17 fecitque ansas quinquaginta in ora sagi unius et quinquaginta in ora sagi alterius ut sibi invicem iungerentur

18 et fibulas aeneas quinquaginta quibus necteretur tectum et unum pallium ex omnibus sagis fieret

19 fecit et opertorium tabernaculi de pellibus arietum rubricatis aliudque desuper velamentum de pellibus ianthinis

Exodus 36:9-19 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EXODUS 36

Bezaleel and Aholiab, with the artificers under them, having a call as well as qualifications for the service of the sanctuary, and having received from Moses the materials for it, set about it, Ex 36:1-3 but the people bringing more than was necessary, they acquaint Moses with it, who by a proclamation restrained from it, Ex 36:4-7 and next an account is given of the several things that were wrought by them, as first the curtains for the tabernacle, both of linen and goats' hair, and the coverings of them, Ex 36:8-19 next the boards for the tabernacle, and the sockets they were set in, and the bars for the boards, Ex 36:20-34 and then the vail which parted the most holy place from the holy place, and the hanging which divided between the holy place and the court, Ex 36:35-38.
