Exodus 36:18-28

18 They made fifty bronze hooks to join the two sets, so as to form one cover.

19 They made two more coverings, one of rams' skin dyed red and the other of fine leather, to serve as an outer cover.

20 They made upright frames of acacia wood for the Tent.

21 Each frame was 15 feet tall and 27 inches wide,

22 with two matching projections, so that the frames could be joined together. All the frames had these projections.

23 They made twenty frames for the south side

24 and forty silver bases to go under them, two bases under each frame to hold its two projections.

25 They made twenty frames for the north side of the Tent

26 and forty silver bases, two under each frame.

27 For the back of the Tent, on the west, they made six frames

28 and two frames for the corners.
