Exodus 26:15-29
15 “You are to make upright planks(a) of acacia wood(A) for the tabernacle.
16 The length of each plank is to be 15 feet,(b) and the width of each plank 27 inches.(c)
17 Each plank must be connected together with two tenons. Do the same for all the planks of the tabernacle.
18 Make the planks for the tabernacle as follows: 20 planks for the south side,
19 and make 40 silver bases under the 20 planks, two bases under the first plank for its two tenons, and two bases under the next plank for its two tenons;
20 20 planks for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side,
21 along with their 40 silver bases, two bases under the first plank and two bases under each plank;
22 and make six planks for the west side of the tabernacle.
23 Make two additional planks for the two back corners of the tabernacle.
24 They are to be paired at the bottom, and joined together(d) at the top in a single ring. So it should be for both of them; they will serve as the two corners.
25 There are to be eight planks with their silver bases: 16 bases; two bases under the first plank and two bases under each plank.
26 “You are to make five crossbars of acacia wood for the planks on one side of the tabernacle,
27 five crossbars for the planks on the other side of the tabernacle, and five crossbars for the planks of the back side of the tabernacle on the west.
28 The central crossbar is to run through the middle of the planks from one end to the other.
29 Then overlay the planks with gold, and make their rings of gold as the holders for the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.
