The early commentaries on the tabernacle's construction often highlight the significance of its structural elements. Here, a Father discusses the importance of the central crossbar in relation to the tabernacle's width.
Here, therefore, we must assume that a bar was stretched across the ten cubits of the width of the tabernacle, from the top of the boards in front to the top on the other side.Early Church Fathers on Exodus 36 →

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text matches closely with the Samaritan Pentateuch, differing only in the use of the word תיכון for הַתִּיכֹ֑ן, indicating a variation in the term for 'middle.' The Septuagint's translation aligns with the Masoretic Text in most aspects but lacks a direct correspondence for some Hebrew terms.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
