Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle,.... Which were curtains of goats' hair:

and put the covering of the tent above upon it; which was of rams' skins died red, and over that another covering of badgers' skins:

as the Lord commanded Moses; Exodus 26:7.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The tent-cloth was spread over the tabernacle-cloth, and the covering of skins was put over the tent-cloth. See Exodus 26:1 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Exodus 40:19. He spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle — By the tent, in this and several other places, we are to understand the coverings made of rams' skins, goats' hair, c., which were thrown over the building for the tabernacle had no other kind of roof.
