Exodus 26:17 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 26:17

Two tenons shall there be on one board
Every board was to be so cut and shaped at the lower end of it, as to have, as it were, "two hands" F18, as in the original, to enter into, lay hold on, and fasten in mortises:

set in order one against another;
at a proper distance from each other, as the rounds of a ladder:

thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle;
everyone was to have two tenons.

Exodus 26:17 In-Context

15 “For the framework of the Tabernacle, construct frames of acacia wood.
16 Each frame must be 15 feet high and 27 inches wide,
17 with two pegs under each frame. Make all the frames identical.
18 Make twenty of these frames to support the curtains on the south side of the Tabernacle.
19 Also make forty silver bases—two bases under each frame, with the pegs fitting securely into the bases.
