The Curtains and Covers for the Dwelling
26 The curtain that forms the dwelling[a] itself you shall make with ten panels[b] of fine woven linen,[c] with blue, purple, and scarlet material. Decorate them with cherubim, which are to be the work of a skillful craftsman. 2 The length of each panel of the curtain is to be forty-two feet, and the width of each panel six feet. All the panels are to be the same size.

- Exodus 26:1 The term dwelling here refers to the innermost of the four layers that covered the framework of the sanctuary. Elsewhere the Dwelling is the name for the whole structure. This translation capitalizes Dwelling when it is the name of the whole structure. It is lowercase dwelling when it is just one of the four layers covering the structure.
- Exodus 26:1 The translation uses curtains and panels for the hangings that made up the various layers of the tent. It uses veil for the partition that divided the tent into two rooms.
- Exodus 26:1 Also translated twisted linen. It may refer to twisting different materials into one thread or to weaving them together.
