Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)

And for the sides of the tabernacle,.... Or the ends of it, the east and west, and the account begins with the west: westward thou shalt make six boards; so that the breadth of the tabernacle was but nine cubits, or four yards and a half, according to a common cubit; but two boards more placed at the two corners of the sides, next observed, added to the breadth of it.
