Contextual Overview

1Then Moses assembled all the congregation of the sons of Israel and said to them, "These are the things that Yahweh has commanded you to do: 2"Six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy day, a sabbath of complete rest to Yahweh; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death. 3You shall not kindle a fire in any of your places of habitation on the sabbath day." 4And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded, saying, 5‘Take from among you a contribution to Yahweh; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as a contribution to Yahweh: gold, silver, and bronze, 6and blue, purple, and scarlet material, fine linen, goats' hair, 7and rams' skins dyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood, 8and oil for lighting, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense, 9and onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for the breastpiece. 10‘And let everyone wise at heart among you come and make all that Yahweh has commanded:

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

Reciprocal: Numbers 3:26 - the cords Numbers 3:36 - under the custody and charge Numbers 4:26 - and their cords

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.
