Footnotes

  1. 28 There is debate whether the word הַקְּרָשִׁים (haqqérashim) means “boards” or “frames” or “planks” (see Ezek 27:6) or “beams,” given the size of them. The literature on this includes M. Haran, “The Priestly Image of the Tabernacle,” 36 (1965): 192; B. A. Levine, “The Description of the Tabernacle Texts of the Pentateuch,” 85 (1965): 307–18; J. Morgenstern, “The Ark, the Ephod, and the Tent,” 17 (1942/43): 153–265; 18 (1943/44): 1–52.
  2. 29 “Wood” is an adverbial accusative.
  3. 30 The plural participle “standing” refers to how these items will be situated; they will be vertical rather than horizontal (U. Cassuto, Exodus, ).
