Ex. 38:10• 10Their pillars were twenty, and their brazen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver. (Ex. 38:10)
• The word for “fillets” is also rendered “connecting rods,” which is probably correct; that is, each of these pillars had a “chapiter,” or capital, of silver upon it and a rod passing from one to the other, uniting them steadfastly together. (“The Court” by S. Ridout)
• As to the pillars, there is no distinct mention of their material, unless it be of copper. In the direction given in chapter 27: to, it says the pillars and their sockets were to be of brass. (“The Court” by S. Ridout)
• In 1 Pet. 1:2 we read: “Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience” (there is the fine linen) “and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ” (here are the silver hooks from which the fine linen is suspended). (“The Court” by S. Ridout)
• Then, in Titus 2:14, he reminds us of this truth at which we are looking: “Who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all iniquity” (there are the silver rods), and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.” How beautifully the linen curtains thus are suspended from the hooks and rods of silver—from redemption. (“The Court” by S. Ridout)
