Exodus 35:12

"the tabernacle, its outer covering, its roof, its clasps, its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;"

Key Reflection

These verses describe the physical structure of the tabernacle, which symbolically represents God's dwelling among his people. Each component, from the outer covering to the sockets, reflects the intricate design that not only provided a sanctuary but also pointed forward to the ultimate sacrifice and presence of Christ in the New Covenant.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

The covering -This is not the same as the covering ofExodus 35:11, which denotes the covering of the tent (seeExodus 26:14): the word is used here for the entrance curtains (seeExodus 26:36;Exodus 27:16).
