V.1-7 What over-flowing generosity. What wisdom, what ability were combined to complete this magnificent work!
V.8 Many men and women (Ex. 35: 25-26). There is work for all, each in his or her place.
V.9-19 When the Lord told Moses about the tabernacle, beginning in chapter 25, the ark of His presence was the first thing spoken of. But when the work is begun, the four coverings of the tabernacle are made first.
V.20-34 What would you think of these workers if they had set up the boards in several groups? In verse 22 “connected one with the other” to form one tabernacle. Yet there are some Christians today who say that it is alright to have many groups of Christians, separated from each other (see John 17:20-2120Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. (John 17:20‑21)).
V.35-38 Compare Hebrews 10:19-2219Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; 21And having an high priest over the house of God; 22Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. (Hebrews 10:19‑22). The vail (or curtain) is a picture of the flesh of Christ. He died, so God can come out, and believers can go in to His Presence.
