27 For the rear of The Dwelling facing west, they made six frames,

29 Both of the two corner frames were double in thickness from top to bottom and fit into a single ring

30 - eight frames altogether with sixteen sockets of silver, two under each frame.

31 They made crossbars of acacia wood, five for the frames on one side of The Dwelling,

32 five for the other side, and five for the back side facing west.

33 The center crossbar ran from end to end halfway up the frames.

34 They covered the frames with a veneer of gold, made gold rings to hold the crossbars, and covered the crossbars with a veneer of gold.
