These men will have the job of caring for the Meeting Tent. 24 "This is what the Gershonite family must do and the things they must carry: 25 They must carry the curtains of the Holy Tent, the Meeting Tent, its covering, and the covering made from fine leather. They must also carry the curtain at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. 26 They must carry the curtains of the courtyard that are around the Holy Tent and the altar.

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.
