Berean Standard Bible

Study note

Setting — The artisan assembles the tabernacle tent during the wilderness period, executing sequential construction steps following divine instructions.

The words — מִכְסֶה (mikh.Seh) means a protective covering, and עֹרֹת אֵלִים (o.Rot 'e.Lim) specifies the material as ram skins.

The thread — This identical material specification appears in the earlier command in Exodus 26:14.

Why it lands — The text requires strict adherence to layered protective materials for the tent's construction.
