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 Make six frames for the rear—the west side of the Tabernacle—

23 along with two additional frames to reinforce the rear corners of the Tabernacle.

24 These corner frames will be matched at the bottom and firmly attached at the top with a single ring, forming a single corner unit. Make both of these corner units the same way.

25 So there will be eight frames at the rear of the Tabernacle, set in sixteen silver bases—two bases under each frame.

26 “Make crossbars of acacia wood to link the frames, five crossbars for the north side of the Tabernacle
