Exodus 36:12
10 And he joined five of the curtains together, and the other five he joined as well.
11 He made loops of blue material on the edge of the end curtain in the first set, and also on the end curtain in the second set.
He made fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the second set, so that the loops lined up opposite one another.
13 He also made fifty gold clasps to join the curtains together, so that the tabernacle was a unit.
14 He then made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven curtains in all.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
