17. They made fifty loops along the edge of the outside curtain of one set and fifty loops along the edge of the outside curtain of the other set.
18. Then they made fifty bronze rings to join the two sets of cloth together and make the tent one piece.
19. They made two more coverings for the outer tent—one made of male sheepskins colored red and the other made of fine leather.
20. Then they made upright frames of acacia wood for the Holy Tent.
21. Each frame was fifteen feet tall and twenty-seven inches wide,
22. and there were two pegs side by side on each one. Every frame of the Holy Tent was made this same way.
23. They made twenty frames for the south side of the Tent,
24. and they made forty silver bases that went under the twenty frames. There were two bases for every frame—one for each peg of each frame.
25. They also made twenty frames for the north side of the Holy Tent
26. and forty silver bases—two to go under each frame.
27. They made six frames for the rear or west end of the Holy Tent
28. and two frames for the corners at the rear of the Holy Tent.
29. These two frames were doubled at the bottom and joined at the top with a metal ring. They did this for each of these corners.
