Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

The length of one curtain shall be twenty eight cubits,.... Or fourteen yards:

and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; or two yards; according to the common notion of a cubit being half a yard; but if, as Dr. Cumberland says, the Jewish and Egyptian cubit was three inches longer, this will make a considerable difference in the length and breadth of those curtains, especially in the former:

and everyone of the curtains shall have one measure; be of equal length and breadth.


Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament

They were to be embroidered with cherubim, signifying that the angels of God pitch their tents round about the church, Ps 34:7.
