Exodus 36:20-30

20 fecit et tabulas tabernaculi de lignis setthim stantes

21 decem cubitorum erat longitudo tabulae unius et unum ac semis cubitum latitudo retinebat

22 binae incastraturae erant per singulas tabulas ut altera alteri iungeretur sic fecit in omnibus tabulis tabernaculi

23 e quibus viginti ad plagam meridianam erant contra austrum

24 cum quadraginta basibus argenteis duae bases sub una tabula ponebantur ex utraque angulorum parte ubi incastraturae laterum in angulis terminantur

25 ad plagam quoque tabernaculi quae respicit ad aquilonem fecit viginti tabulas

26 cum quadraginta argenteis basibus duas bases per singulas tabulas

27 contra occidentem vero id est ad eam partem tabernaculi quae mare respicit fecit sex tabulas

28 et duas alias per singulos angulos tabernaculi retro

29 quae iunctae erant deorsum usque sursum et in unam conpagem pariter ferebantur ita fecit ex utraque parte per angulos

30 ut octo essent simul tabulae et haberent bases argenteas sedecim binas scilicet bases sub singulis tabulis

Exodus 36:20-30 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EXODUS 36

Bezaleel and Aholiab, with the artificers under them, having a call as well as qualifications for the service of the sanctuary, and having received from Moses the materials for it, set about it, Ex 36:1-3 but the people bringing more than was necessary, they acquaint Moses with it, who by a proclamation restrained from it, Ex 36:4-7 and next an account is given of the several things that were wrought by them, as first the curtains for the tabernacle, both of linen and goats' hair, and the coverings of them, Ex 36:8-19 next the boards for the tabernacle, and the sockets they were set in, and the bars for the boards, Ex 36:20-34 and then the vail which parted the most holy place from the holy place, and the hanging which divided between the holy place and the court, Ex 36:35-38.
