Exodus 27:9Meaning & Commentary from the Church Fathers

The precinct of the tabernacle featured a curtain measuring 100 cubits in length, yet it was supported by only 20 pillars, resulting in a distance of five cubits between each post. Ties, likely consisting of staves, connected these pillars. The white linen veil was suspended from these pillars using silver staves and attached with silver hooks. The tops of the pillars were adorned with silver. At the entrance of the court, there were only three posts on either side, with the continuation of the linen veil hung from them. The gap between these posts measured twenty cubits, designated as the doorway.
