And there shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

The length of each curtain was eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains had one measure.

And there were eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.
