Shemot 27:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 27:6

And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim
wood
Like those that were made for the ark, and for the same purpose:

and overlay them with brass;
with plates of brass, whereas those for the ark were overlaid with gold.

Shemot 27:6 In-Context

4 And thou shalt build for it a mikhbar (grate), a strainer reshet (mesh, netting) of nechoshet; and upon the meshwork shalt thou make four taba’ot (rings) of nechoshet in the four corners thereof.
5 And thou shalt put it under the karkov ([surrounding] border, ledge) of the Mizbe’ach from below, that the meshwork may be half the height of the Mizbe’ach.
6 And thou shalt make badim (carrying poles) designed for the Mizbe’ach, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with nechoshet.
7 And the badim shall be put into the taba’ot, and the badim shall be upon the two sides of the Mizbe’ach, to carry it.
8 Hollow, with luchot (planks, boards, panels), shalt thou make as it was showed thee on HaHar, so shall they make it.
