Contextual Overview

¹ And Moses sent for all the children of Israel to come together, and said to them, This is what the Lord has said and these are his orders. ² Six days let work be done, but the seventh day is to be a holy day to you, a Sabbath of rest to the Lord; whoever does any work on that day is to be put to death. ³ No fire is to be lighted in any of your houses on the Sabbath day. ⁴ And Moses said to all the meeting of the children of Israel, This is the order which the Lord has given: ⁵ Take from among you an offering to the Lord; everyone who has the impulse in his heart, let him give his offering to the Lord; gold and silver and brass; ⁶ And blue and purple and red and the best linen and goats' hair, ⁷ And sheepskins coloured red, and leather, and hard wood, ⁸ And oil for the lights, and spices for the holy oil and for the sweet perfumes for burning. ⁹ And beryls and jewels to be cut for the ephod and for the priest's bag. ¹⁰ And let every wise-hearted man among you come and make whatever has been ordered by the Lord;

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

The pins: These, as Dr. Wall observes, were not particularly mentioned. Josephus says, that to every board of the tabernacle, and to every pillar of the hangings of the court, there were ropes or cords, fastened at the top of the board or pillar, and that the other end of the rope was fastened to a נבףףבכןע, a nail, or pin, which, at a good distance off, was driven into the ground up to the head, a cubit deep. This was to keep the tabernacle from being blown down by the wind. Dr. Shaw, describing the tents of the Bedouins, says, "These tents are kept firm and steady by bracing or stretching down their eaves with cords tied to wooden hooked pins, well pointed, which they drive into the ground with a mallet; one of these pins answering to the nail, as the mallet does to the hammer, which Jael used in fastening to the ground the temples of Sisera" - Judges 4:21. Exodus 27:19

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The pins of the tabernacle,.... Which were to fix and fasten the ends of the curtains in the ground, that they might not be moved with the wind, as Jarchi observes:

and the pins of the court, and their cords; which were for the same use; see Exodus 27:19.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The word “tabernacle” משׁכן mı̂shkān is here used for the full name, the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. It denotes the entire structure.
