Exodus 25:25 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 25:25

And thou shalt make unto it a border of art hand's breadth
round about
Jarchi says, their wise men are divided about this; some say it was above, round about the table; others say it was below, fixed from foot to foot at the four corners of the table, and the board of the table lay upon the border:

and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about;
this was not the same spoke of in the former verse, but another; that was above, and upon the table, this below and under it; or rather that was, as it may be better expressed, a lip, rim, or border, that went round within the table F21; and this crown, surrounded that on the edge of it.

Exodus 25:25 In-Context

23 facies et mensam de lignis setthim habentem duos cubitos longitudinis et in latitudine cubitum et in altitudine cubitum ac semissem
24 et inaurabis eam auro purissimo faciesque illi labium aureum per circuitum
25 et ipsi labio coronam interrasilem altam quattuor digitis et super illam alteram coronam aureolam
26 quattuor quoque circulos aureos praeparabis et pones eos in quattuor angulis eiusdem mensae per singulos pedes
27 subter coronam erunt circuli aurei ut mittantur vectes per eos et possit mensa portari
