Esodo 26:16

Listen to Esodo 26:16
16 Sia la lunghezza di ciascuna asse di dieci cubiti, e la larghezza di un cubito e mezzo.

Esodo 26:16 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 26:16

Ten cubits shall be the length of a board
Or five yards, according to the common cubit:

and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board;
or three quarters of a yard; and from hence we may learn what were the height and the length of the tabernacle; according to the common computation of a cubit, it was but five yards high and fifteen long, since there were but twenty boards on each side, ( Exodus 26:18 Exodus 26:20 ) , but if three inches are added to each cubit, it will make its measures considerably larger: Josephus F17 says the boards were four fingers thick: according to Bishop Cumberland the boards of the tabernacle, containing fifteen Jewish square cubits, were very near fifty English square feet in their length and breadth.

Esodo 26:16 In-Context

14 Fa’ ancora alla Tenda una coverta di pelli di montone, tinte in rosso; e un’altra coverta di pelli di tasso, disopra.
15 Fa’, oltre a ciò, delle assi per lo Tabernacolo; falle di legno di Sittim, per metterle ritte.
16 Sia la lunghezza di ciascuna asse di dieci cubiti, e la larghezza di un cubito e mezzo.
17 Abbia ciascuna asse due cardini da incastrare un pezzo nell’altro; fa’ così a tutte le assi del Tabernacolo.
18 Fa’ adunque le assi per lo Tabernacolo; venti assi dal lato Australe, verso il Mezzodì.
