You are to construct upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle

on Exodus 26:15-19

Under the curtains stands a frame of acacia boards, each set upright in two silver sockets. Exodus 38:27 says that silver was the hundred talents of atonement money, gathered at half a shekel a man. The frame of the dwelling place stands on ransom money.

The record, by era

The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice

And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle,.... As in the manner before described, so in number as follows: twenty boards on the south side southward; which being a cubit and a half broad, made the length of the tabernacle fifteen yards according to the common account; but if these were cubits of twenty one inches, then its length was much greater.
