Contextual Overview

1 And Moses assembled all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and said to them, These are the words which Yahweh has commanded, that you should do them. 2 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day, a Sabbath of solemn rest to Yahweh: whoever does any work therein shall be put to death. 3 You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations on the Sabbath day. 4 And Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, This is the thing which Yahweh commanded, saying, 5 You take from among you an offering to Yahweh; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, Yahweh's offering: gold, and silver, and bronze, 6 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' [hair], 7 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins, and acacia wood, 8 and oil for the light, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense, 9 and onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate. 10 And let every wise-hearted man among you come, and make all that Yahweh has commanded:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The ark and the staves thereof,.... To carry it with, which were all made of shittim wood:

[with] the mercy seat; made of pure gold; these were set in the most holy place:

and the vail of the covering; which divided between the holy and the holy of holies; of these see Exodus 25:10.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The covering - This is not the same as the covering of Exodus 35:11, which denotes the covering of the tent (see Exodus 26:14): the word is used here for the entrance curtains (see Exodus 26:36; Exodus 27:16).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Exodus 35:12. The ark — See Exodus 25:10-17.
