Exodus 36:1-25

So Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person will do the work the LORD has commanded, because he gave them the wisdom and understanding to do all the skilled work needed to build the Holy Tent.” Then Moses called Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the other skilled people to whom the LORD had given skills, and they came because they wanted to help with the work. They received from Moses everything the people of Israel had brought as gifts to build the Holy Tent. The people continued to bring gifts each morning because they wanted to. So all the skilled workers left the work they were doing on the Holy Tent, and they said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than we need to do the work the LORD commanded.” Then Moses sent this command throughout the camp: “No man or woman should make anything else as a gift for the Holy Tent.” So the people were kept from giving more, because what they had was already more than enough to do all the work. Then the skilled workers made the Holy Tent. They made the ten curtains of blue, purple, and red cloth, and they sewed designs of creatures with wings on the curtains. Each curtain was the same size—forty-two feet long and six feet wide. Five of the curtains were fastened together to make one set, and the other five were fastened together to make another set. Then they made loops of blue cloth along the edge of the end curtain on the first set of five, and they did the same thing with the other set of five. There were fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the other curtain, with the loops opposite each other. They made fifty gold hooks to join the two curtains together so that the Holy Tent was joined together as one piece. Then the workers made another tent of eleven curtains made of goat hair, to put over the Holy Tent. All eleven curtains were the same size—forty-five feet long and six feet wide. The workers sewed five curtains together into one set and six together into another set. They made fifty loops along the edge of the outside curtain of one set and fifty loops along the edge of the outside curtain of the other set. Then they made fifty bronze rings to join the two sets of cloth together and make the tent one piece. They made two more coverings for the outer tent—one made of male sheepskins colored red and the other made of fine leather. Then they made upright frames of acacia wood for the Holy Tent. Each frame was fifteen feet tall and twenty-seven inches wide, and there were two pegs side by side on each one. Every frame of the Holy Tent was made this same way. They made twenty frames for the south side of the Tent, and they made forty silver bases that went under the twenty frames. There were two bases for every frame—one for each peg of each frame. They also made twenty frames for the north side of the Holy Tent
