Exodus 36:20
18 He also made fifty bronze clasps to join the tent together as a unit.
19 Additionally, he made for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of fine leather.
Next, he constructed upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
21 Each frame was ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.
22 Two tenons were connected to each other for each frame. He made all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.
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.
