15-30. 你要用……板……照著在山上指示你的樣式立起會幕——會幕從其名稱以及其整體外觀與佈局來看，是一座帳幕；但從這幾節的描述——構成牆壁的板、加固它們的五根（橫）杠、以及那「從這頭通到那頭」的中杠，賦予其堅實與緊湊——看來它顯然比輕便脆弱的帳幕更為堅固，也許是因為其各種蓋子的重量，以及為保護其中珍貴的器具。
英文原文
15-30. thou shalt make boards . . . rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion . . . which was showed thee--The tabernacle, from its name as well as from its general appearance and arrangements, was a tent; but from the description given in these verses, the boards that formed its walls, the five (cross) bars that strengthened them, and the middle bar that "reached from end to end," and gave it solidity and compactness, it was evidently a more substantial fabric than a light and fragile tent, probably on account of the weight of its various coverings as well as for the protection of its precious furniture.

36. 帳幕門簾——東方王公酋長所住帳棚的門口或入口處，常懸掛由婦女以精美複雜的刺繡製成的簾帷。這幅用以遮蓋會幕——以色列的上帝和君王所揀選的居所——之門口的簾子，也以同樣典雅的風格製成。從
出 26:12, 22, 23 可知，約櫃和施恩座安放在會幕的西端，因此門口或入口朝東；這樣，以色列人敬拜耶和華時，面朝西方——為要這樣象徵性地教導他們，轉離那為列國大偶像的日頭之崇拜，而去敬拜創造日頭又創造他們的上帝〔HEWLETT〕。
英文原文
36. an hanging for the door of the tent--Curtains of rich and elaborate embroidery, made by the women, are suspended over the doors or entrances of the tents occupied by Eastern chiefs and princes. In a similar style of elegance was the hanging finished which was to cover the door of this tabernacle--the chosen habitation of the God and King of Israel. It appears from
Ex 26:12, 22, 23,
that the ark and mercy seat were placed in the west end of the tabernacle, and consequently the door or entrance fronted the east, so that the Israelites in worshipping Jehovah, turned their faces towards the west; that they might be thus figuratively taught to turn from the worship of that luminary which was the great idol of the nations, and to adore the God who made it and them [HEWLETT].
Ex 26:1-37.
十幅幔子。
1. 用巧匠的手工——即精緻的織工、富麗的繡花。「巧匠」一詞在古英語中與「巧妙的」同義。
