Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)
See Exo. 26:1-37. It has been already observed Exo 25:10 that in the instructions for making the sanctuary, the ark of the covenant, as the principal thing belonging to it, is mentioned first; but in the practical order of the work, as it is here arranged, the tabernacle with its tent and covering come first.
This site's exposition
Let every skilled craftsman among you come
on Exodus 35:10-14
The Hebrew behind skilled is the word for wisdom. It falls on the workmen at verse 10, the women at verse 25 and the two named masters at verse 35.
This site's exposition
the tabernacle with its tent and covering
The tabernacle is the linen of 26:1, and the tent is the goat hair laid over it at 26:7. Albert Barnes identifies the covering with the skins of 26:14. Exodus 36:8-19 makes them in that order.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening2 voices
23 And every man, with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them. 24 Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the L ORD 's offering: and every man, with whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought it.
