bars of shittim wood
on Exodus 26:26-29
Five bars a side hold the boards together, and the middle bar runs from end to end while the others do not. Everything the eye would meet is overlaid with gold, the boards, the rings and the bars alike. The whole frame is built to be taken apart and carried, which Numbers 4 sets out in detail.
