make a table of shittim wood
on Exodus 25:23-28
The table is built on the ark's own plan, acacia wood overlaid with gold, a crown of gold round about, rings at the four feet and staves to bear it. Everything in the holy place is made to be carried, and Numbers 4 sets out who carries what. Gill and Keil read the border of a hand breadth as a rim that held the loaves in place while the table was on the move.
