Exodus 37:10

The Holy Bible, Berean Study Bible

Contextual Overview

¹⁰He made the table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high.¹¹He overlaid it with pure gold and made a gold molding around it. ¹²He also made a rim around it a handbreadth wide and put a gold molding on the rim. ¹³He cast four gold rings for the table and fastened them to the four corners at its four legs. ¹⁴The rings were placed close to the rim, to serve as holders for the poles used to carry the table. ¹⁵He made the poles of acacia wood for carrying the table and overlaid them with gold. ¹⁶He also made the utensils for the table out of pure gold: its plates and dishes, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings. ¹⁷Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals. ¹⁸Six branches extended from the sides, three on one side and three on the other. ¹⁹There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the first branch, each with buds and petals, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches that extended from the lampstand.

Exodus 25:23-30, Exodus 35:13, Exodus 40:4, Exodus 40:22, Exodus 40:23, Ezekiel 40:39-42, Malachi 1:12, John 1:14, John 1:16, Colossians 1:27, Nothing but the ark of the covenant, with the mercy-seat, was put within the most holy place; but without the vail this "table of shittim wood" was fixed, of the same height as the ark, but neither so long nor so broad. It was made of the same materials as the ark, and with a golden cornice; but it had also another cornice below the edge, and one at the bottom, with a border between the two of a hand breadth; though some think one border only was below the edge, and that this was towards the bottom, to keep the feet or legs more closely united. The table also had rings and staves for the convenience of removing it. To it were annexed several vessels; as dishes, in which some think the shewbread was placed; or, according to others, the flour of which it was made, or the oil used for various purposes; spoons, which were employed about the incense offered on the golden altar, or carried within the vail in a censer on the day of atonement. Some have supposed the word to denote vials, as we read of vials full of odours and incense - Revelation 5:3: covers, which seem to have been put over both the loaves and the incense, yet some suppose they were vessels used in drink-offerings; but that is more reasonably considered as the use of the bowls.
