Context — The Frames and Bases
24with forty silver bases to put under the twenty frames—two bases for each frame, one under each tenon.
25For the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty frames
26and forty silver bases—two bases under each frame.
27He made six frames for the rear of the tabernacle, the west side, 28and two frames for the two back corners of the tabernacle,Exodus 36:26 Summary
Exodus 36:26 tells us about the construction of the tabernacle, specifically the use of forty silver bases to support the frames. This verse reminds us that just as the tabernacle needed a strong foundation to stand, we also need a strong spiritual foundation to stand firm in our faith (as seen in Matthew 7:24-27). The use of two bases under each frame also teaches us about the importance of stability and support in our lives, which we can find in our relationship with God (as described in Psalm 46:1-3). By looking at the details in this verse, we can learn more about God's care and attention to detail in our lives.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the forty silver bases in Exodus 36:26?
The forty silver bases in Exodus 36:26 represent the foundation and stability of the tabernacle, much like the spiritual foundation we have in Jesus Christ, as described in 1 Corinthians 3:11, which says that 'no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid; that foundation is Jesus Christ.'
Why are two bases used under each frame in Exodus 36:26?
The use of two bases under each frame, as mentioned in Exodus 36:26, provides extra stability and support, much like the dual nature of our support in Christ, where we are told in Deuteronomy 31:6 to 'be strong and courageous' because God is with us, and in Hebrews 13:5-6, that He will never leave or forsake us.
How does Exodus 36:26 relate to the overall construction of the tabernacle?
Exodus 36:26 is part of the detailed description of the tabernacle's construction, highlighting the importance of precision and obedience to God's instructions, as seen in Exodus 25:9 and Exodus 40:16, where Moses carefully follows God's blueprint for the tabernacle.
What can we learn from the specific details in Exodus 36:26?
The specific details in Exodus 36:26, such as the use of silver bases and the number of frames, demonstrate God's attention to detail and care for His people, as seen in Psalm 138:8, which says that 'the Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; Your steadfast love, O God, endures forever.'
Reflection Questions
- What does the image of the silver bases under the frames suggest about the spiritual foundations in my own life?
- How can I apply the principle of stability and support, as seen in the two bases under each frame, to my daily walk with God?
- In what ways can I reflect the precision and obedience to God's instructions, as demonstrated in the construction of the tabernacle, in my own life and decisions?
- What does the use of silver, a valuable and durable material, in the bases suggest about the value and importance God places on His people and their spiritual foundations?

And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 36:26
(20-34) After the construction of the roof, that of the walls is described, the order of Exodus 26 being still followed. Exodus 36:20-34 correspond to Exodus 36:15-29 of Exodus 26. The correspondence is closer than would appear from the Authorised Version.
