Commentary

He also made the table of acacia wood
on Exodus 37:10-16
The table takes rings and staves like the ark, so every piece inside the holy place is built to be carried. Its bread waits until 40:23, where Moses sets it in order.
This site's exposition
for carrying the table
The poles carry out 25:28. Numbers 4:7-8 has the priests spread blue and scarlet cloths over the table and its dishes, cover it with fine leather and insert its poles. The Kohathites then carried it.
