The Table

²³ “Make a table out of acacia wood, ·thirty-six inches [^Ltwo cubits] long, ·eighteen inches [^Lone cubit] wide, and ·twenty-seven inches [^Lone and a half cubits] high. ²⁴ ·Cover [Overlay] it with pure gold, and put a gold ·strip [molding] around it. ²⁵ Make a ·frame [rim] ·three inches [^La handbreadth] high ·that stands up all around the edge, and put a gold ·strip [molding] around it. ²⁶ Then make four gold rings. Attach them to the four corners of the table where the four legs are. ²⁷ Put the rings close to the ·frame [rim] around the top of the table, because they will hold the poles for carrying it. ²⁸ Make the poles out of acacia wood, ·cover [overlay] them with gold, and carry the table with these poles. ²⁹ Make the plates and bowls for the table, as well as the jars and cups, out of pure gold. They will be used for pouring out the drink offerings [Ezra 1:9–11; Dan. 1:2; 5:1–4]. ³⁰ On this table put the ·bread that shows you are in my presence [Bread of Presence] so that it is always there in front of me.
