Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the hangings of the court,.... Which made the great court that surrounded the tabernacle, Exodus 27:9;
and the hanging for the door of the gate of the court; the eastern gate that led into the court, an hanging of twenty cubits, Exodus 27:16;
which [is] by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about; that is, which hangings that formed the court, and were round about the tabernacle, and the altar of burnt offering; Exodus 27:16- :;
and their cords; which fastened the hangings to pins or stakes fixed in the ground to keep them tight, that they might not be moved to and fro with the wind:
and all the instruments of their service; in the court, as the tables on which the sacrifices were laid, and the hooks, and cords, and pins, on which they were hung and fastened, as Aben Ezra; see Ezekiel 40:39;
and all that is made for them; for the vessels of service, or for the tabernacle, or the altar, as the same writer intimates:
so shall they serve; by bearing them and carrying them.
