In <a href="/exodus/30-11.htm">Exodus 30:11-16</a>, silver is collected as atonement money, linking it to the concept of redemption. The forty bases suggest a foundation of redemption, supporting the structure of the tabernacle, which is a dwelling place for God's presence among His people. The number forty is often associated with periods of testing and preparation in Scripture, such as the forty years in the wilderness.<p><b>under the twenty frames</b><br>The frames, or boards, form the structure of the tabernacle, representing the stability and order of God's dwelling place. The number twenty can symbolize a complete or perfect waiting period, as seen in the twenty years Jacob waited to be freed from Laban (<a href="/genesis/31-38.htm">Genesis 31:38-41</a>). The frames provide a sturdy framework, emphasizing the permanence and reliability of God's covenant with Israel.<p><b>two bases for each frame</b><br>The dual bases for each frame highlight the importance of balance and support in the tabernacle's construction. This duality can be seen as a reflection of the dual nature of Christ, both fully God and fully man, providing a foundation for the New Covenant. The two bases ensure stability, much like the two tablets of the Law given to Moses, which provided a moral foundation for the Israelites.<p><b>one under each tenon</b><br>The tenons are the connecting points that secure the frames to the bases, ensuring the tabernacle's stability. This connection can be seen as a type of the believer's connection to Christ, the cornerstone (<a href="/ephesians/2-20.htm">Ephesians 2:20</a>), who provides stability and unity to the body of believers. The precise construction details underscore the importance of order and intentionality in God's design, reflecting His nature as a God of order and purpose.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, who received the instructions for the Tabernacle from God on Mount Sinai.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_tabernacle.htm">The Tabernacle</a></b><br>A portable earthly dwelling place of God among the Israelites, designed according to divine specifications.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_israelites.htm">The Israelites</a></b><br>The chosen people of God, who were to construct the Tabernacle as a place of worship and meeting with God.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_wilderness.htm">The Wilderness</a></b><br>The setting where the Israelites were journeying from Egypt to the Promised Land, during which the Tabernacle was constructed.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_silver_bases.htm">The Silver Bases</a></b><br>Part of the structural foundation of the Tabernacle, symbolizing stability and purity.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_obedience.htm">The Importance of Obedience</a></b><br>The detailed instructions for the Tabernacle highlight the importance of following God's commands precisely.

They were certainly very massive, as each contained a silver talent (<a href="/exodus/38-27.htm">Exodus 38:27</a>), and thus weighed from eighty to ninety pounds. It has been supposed that they stood on the ground, and formed a sort of continuous base, out of which the planks rose. But this would have constituted a very unsafe structure. Kalisch is probably right in his view, that the sockets were let into the ground resembling those at the bottom of a gate, into which the bolt is pressed down. Each socket received one of the "tenons." <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/exodus/26-19.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">with</span><br /><span class="heb">תַּעֲשֶׂ֕ה</span> <span class="translit">(ta·‘ă·śeh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb -
