Contextual Overview

¹⁴As the material for the tent, goat hair was used to weave eleven sections fifteen yards by two yards each. ¹⁶ These eleven sections were joined to make two panels, one with five and the other with six sections. ¹⁷ Fifty loops were put along one of the wider sides of each panel, ¹⁸ and the two panels were fastened at the loops with fifty bronze hooks. ¹⁹ Two other coverings were made—one with fine leather and the other with ram skins dyed red. ²⁰ Acacia wood was used to build the framework for the walls of the sacred tent. ²¹ Each frame was fifteen feet high and twenty-seven inches wide ²²with two wooden pegs near the bottom. Then two silver stands were placed under each frame with sockets for the pegs, so they could be joined together. Twenty of these frames were used along the south side and twenty more along the north. ²⁷ Six frames were used for the back wall along the west side ²⁸with two more at the southwest and northwest corners. These corner frames were joined from top to bottom.
