for the second side of the tabernacle

on Exodus 26:20-25

Twenty boards south, twenty north, and eight at the west end with the two corner boards doubled and ringed together. The east end is left open here and is closed in verses 36 and 37 by a hanging rather than by boards. Forty sockets, forty sockets and sixteen make ninety six under the boards, and the four under the pillars of the vail bring it to the hundred that Exodus 38:27 counts.

The record, by era

The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice

And their forty sockets of silver,.... answerable to the twenty boards, for their two tenons to be placed in as in mortises: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board; and so under all the boards on the north side as on the south.
