Exodus 26:13

26:13 The foot and a half ¹  on the one side and the foot and a half on the other side of what remains in the length of the curtains of the tent will hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on one side and the other side, to cover it. ² 

Exodus 27:11

27:11 Likewise ³  for its length on the north side, there are to be ⁴  hangings for one hundred fifty feet, with twenty posts and their twenty bronze bases, with silver hooks and bands ⁵  on the posts.

¹ tn Literally “cubit.”

² sn U. Cassuto states the following: “To the north and to the south, since the tent curtains were thirty cubits long, there were ten cubits left over on each side; these covered the nine cubits of the curtains of the tabernacle and also the bottom cubit of the boards, which the tabernacle curtains did not suffice to cover. It is to this that v. 13 refers” (Exodus, 353).

³ tn Heb “and thus.”

⁴ tn Here the phrase “there will be” has been supplied.

⁵ sn These bands have been thought by some to refer to connecting rods joining the tops of the posts. But it is more likely that they are bands or bind rings surrounding the posts at the base of the capitals (see 38:17).
