1. “Make the Tabernacle from ten curtains of finely woven linen. Decorate the curtains with blue, purple, and scarlet thread and with skillfully embroidered cherubim.
2. These ten curtains must all be exactly the same size—42 feet long and 6 feet wide.
3. Join five of these curtains together to make one long curtain, then join the other five into a second long curtain.
4. Put loops of blue yarn along the edge of the last curtain in each set.
5. The fifty loops along the edge of one curtain are to match the fifty loops along the edge of the other curtain.
6. Then make fifty gold clasps and fasten the long curtains together with the clasps. In this way, the Tabernacle will be made of one continuous piece.
7. “Make eleven curtains of goat-hair cloth to serve as a tent covering for the Tabernacle.
8. These eleven curtains must all be exactly the same size—45 feet long and 6 feet wide.
9. Join five of these curtains together to make one long curtain, and join the other six into a second long curtain. Allow 3 feet of material from the second set of curtains to hang over the front of the sacred tent.
10. Make fifty loops for one edge of each large curtain.
