This lesson is about the boards placed under the "Tent" and it's symbolic meaning.

(Exodus 26:19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.)

6. Each board is cubit wide.

(Exodus 26:16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.)

7. Each cubit equals 18 inches. Multiply the number of cubits in the length of a board by 18 and divide by 12 and each board is feet long.

(Exodus 26:16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.)

8. Each cubit equals 18 inches. Multiply the number of cubits in the width of a board by 18 and divide by 12 and each board is feet and inches wide.

(Exodus 26:16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.)

9. The bars are made of wood.

27 And five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward.

28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.)

13. The middle bar on each side is to through the boards from one end to the . (Exodus 36:33 And he made the middle bar to shoot through the boards from the one end to the other.)

14. Since the middle bar goes through the center of each board, it is hidden, and that leaves bars on the outside of each side and with three sides that gives a total of bars.

15. The 12 bars on the outside are symbolic of the 12 of the Lamb.

(Revelation 21:14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.)
