Lalu semua ahli di antara tukang-tukang itu membuat Kemah Suci dari sepuluh tenda dari lenan halus yang dipintal benangnya dan dari kain ungu tua, kain ungu muda dan kain kirmizi; dengan ada kerubnya, buatan ahli tenun, dibuat orang semuanya itu.
Maka demikianlah diperbuat oleh segala orang yang pandai di antara tukang-tukang itu akan kemah sembahyang sepuluh helai kain kelambu dari pada bisus yang dipintal dan dari pada benang yang biru laut dan ungu dan kirmizi warnanya, ditenun berkerubiun, suatu perbuatan kepandaian yang dikerjakannya.

Bible Verse Review

wise: Exodus 31:6, Exodus 35:10
made: Exodus 26:1-37, 1 Chronicles 15:1
cherubims: Keroovim, cherubim, not cherubims. What these were we cannot determine. Some, observing that the verb kerav in Syriac, sometimes means to resemble, make like, conceive the noun keroov signifies no more than an image, figure, or representation of anything. Josephus says they were flying animals, like none of those which are seen by man, but such as Moses saw about the throne of God. In another place he says, "As for the cherubim, nobody can tell or conceive what they were like." These symbolical figures, according to the description of them by Ezekiel (Ezekiel 1:10; Ezekiel 10:14), were creatures with four heads and one body; and the animals of which these forms consisted were the noblest of their kind; the lion among the wild beasts; the bull among the tame ones; the eagle among the birds, and man at the head of all. Hence some have conceived them to be somewhat of the shape of flying oxen; and it is alleged in favour of this opinion, that the far more common meaning of the verb kerav, in Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic, being to plough, the natural meaning of keroov, is a creature used in ploughing. This seems to have been the ancient opinion which tradition had handed down, concerning the shape of the cherubim with the flaming sword, that guarded the tree of life - Genesis 3:24. Exodus 25:18, Exodus 25:22, 1 Kings 6:23, 2 Chronicles 3:10, Ezekiel 1:5-28, Ezekiel 10:1-19

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ver. 8-38. And every wise hearted man among them that wrought the work of the tabernacle,.... Did the part assigned him, what he was fittest for, and most skilful in: particularly some
made ten curtains, c. which were properly the tabernacle, and were made first, and then the several things appertaining to it and from hence, to the end of the chapter Exodus 36:9, is only an account of the making of the tabernacle, its curtains, coverings, boards, sockets, and bars, the vail for the most holy place, and the hangings for the tabernacle, exactly as they are ordered to be made,
Exodus 36:9- : c. to end of chapter: and it may be observed, that throughout the account of the various articles, it is all along said "he" did this and the other either referring to Moses, by whose orders they were done, or to Bezaleel, the chief director of the work, or to each and everyone of the artificers severally concerned.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 36:8. Cherubims of cunning work — See on Exodus 25:18. Probably the word means no more than figures of any kind wrought in the diaper fashion in the loom, or by the needle in embroidery, or by the chisel or graving tool in wood, stone, or metal; Exodus 25:18; Exodus 25:18. This meaning Houbigant and other excellent critics contend for. In some places the word seems to be restricted to express a particular figure then well known; but in many other places it seems to imply any kind of figure commonly formed by sculpture on stone, by carving on wood, by engraving upon brass, and by weaving in the loom, &c.
