Exodus 39:32-43

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

THE GENERAL APPROVAL OF THE WORK BY MOSES. The entire work for the structure of the tabernacle being completed, it only remained for Bezaleel and Aholiab to take in band the priestly vestments, which had been prescribed with the greatest elaboration in Exodus 28:4-40.

The present chapter is mainly occupied in relating how the vestments were made, and follows, very nearly, the order of the directions. Exodus 39:1-7 correspond to Exodus 28:5-14; Exodus 39:8-21 to Exodus 28:15-38; Exodus 39:22-26 to Exodus 28:31-34; Exodus 39:27-29 to Exodus 28:39, Exodus 28:40; and Exodus 39:30, Exodus 39:31 to Exodus 28:36, Exodus 28:37.
