Commentaries

Matthew Henry's Commentary

26:1-6 God manifested his presence among the Israelites in a tabernacle or tent, because of their condition in the wilderness. God suits the tokens of his favour, and the gifts of his grace, to his people's state and wants. The curtains of the tabernacle were to be very rich. They were to be embroidered with cherubim, signifying that the angels of God pitch their tents round about the church, Ps 34:7.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown

3. The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another, &c.—so as to form two grand divisions, each eleven yards wide.
