Instructions for the coverings for the Sacred Tent
1 "Tell the people to make the Sacred Tent using ten long strips of fine linen. They must take blue, purple, and red thread (OR, weave the strips from blue, purple, and red thread), and a skilled craftsman must embroider these strips with designs that represent the winged creatures that are above the chest.
7 Also, tell them to make a cover for the Sacred Tent from eleven pieces of cloth made from goats’ hair. 14 Tell them to make two more covers for the Sacred Tent. One is to be made from rams’ skins that have been ◄tanned/dyed red►, and the top cover is to be made from goatskin leather."
Instructions for the framework for the Sacred Tent
15 "Tell them to make 48 frames from acacia wood, frames that will be set up from which to hang the Sacred Tent covers.
Instructions for the Very Holy Place and the curtain
31 "Tell them to make a curtain from fine linen. A skilled craftsman must embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, making designs to represent the winged creatures that are above the chest. 33 They must suspend/hang the top of the curtain by hooks that are fastened to the roof of the Sacred Tent. Behind the curtain, in the room called the Very Holy Place, they must put the chest containing the two stone slabs on which I have written my commandments. That curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place.
