Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 25:23-30

Here is, 1. A table ordered to be made of wood overlaid with gold, which was to stand, not in the holy of holies (nothing was in that but the ark with its appurtenances), but in the outer part of the tabernacle, called the sanctuary, or holy place, Heb. 9:2, 23 There must also be the usual furniture of the sideboard, dishes and spoons, etc., and all of gold, Exod. 25:29. 2. This table was to be always spread, and furnished with the show-bread (Exod. 25:30), or bread of faces, twelve loaves,... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 25:31-40

I. The next thing ordered to be made for the furnishing of God's palace was a rich stately candlestick, all of pure gold, not hollow, but solid. The particular directions here given concerning it show, 1. That it was very magnificent, and a great ornament to the place; it had many branches drawn from the main shaft, which had not only their bowls (to put the oil and the kindled wick in) for necessity, but knops and flowers for ornament. 2. That it was very convenient, and admirably contrived... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:28

And thou shall make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold ,.... In like manner as the staves for the ark, and which were made of the same wood: that the table may be borne with them ; when moved from one place to another; these staves did not remain in the rings, as the staves for the ark did; but, as Josephus says F23 Antiqu. l. 3. c. 6. sect. 6. , were taken out, because they otherwise would have been in the way of the priests, who came every week to it, to set... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:29

And thou shall make the dishes thereof ,.... On which the shewbread loaves were set. Jarchi says they were of the form of the bread, and that there were two sorts, one of gold, and one of iron; in the iron one the bread was baked, and when they took it out of the oven, they put it into the golden one until the morrow of the sabbath, when they set it in order upon the table; and that form is called "Kaarah", which we render a dish: and the spoons thereof ; or rather "cups"; these, Jarchi... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:30

And thou shall set upon the table shewbread before me always. Which consisted of twelve cakes loaves, set in two rows upon the table, and stood there a whole week, and every sabbath were renewed; and when the old ones were took away, which were eaten by the priests, new ones were set, so that they were always before the Lord; and being continually before him, were called shewbread, or "bread of faces", being always before the face of God. This was a memorial of the goodness of God in daily... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:31

And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold ,.... Another piece of household furniture, and an useful one, especially in a house where there are no windows, as there were none in the tabernacle, denoting the darkness of the legal dispensation, see 2 Kings 4:10 . This candlestick was set in the holy place, on the south side of it, opposite the shewbread table, Exodus 26:35 and was typical of the church of God; so the candlesticks John had a vision of signify seven churches, Revelation... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:32

And six branches shall come out of the sides of it ,.... Out of the trunk or shaft, being beaten out of it: three branches of the candlestick out of one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side ; Jarchi takes what we render the "shaft" to be the lower part of the candlestick, from whence three feet went out below; and the "branch" or "cane", for it is in the singular number in the preceding verse, he takes to be the middle branch or trunk, that went up from the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 25:33

Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop and a flower in one branch ,.... There were three bowls or cups in the form of almond nuts to each branch, which were either to hold oil for the lamps, as before observed, or, as others think, to catch the snuff which fell from them; and there were a "knop", which, according to the signification of the word, was in the form of a pomegranate, and a flower, which the Targum of Jonathan renders a lily; and they are both in Scripture emblems of the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 25:29

The dishes thereof - קערתיו kearothaiv , probably the deep bowls in which they kneaded the mass out of which they made the shew-bread. And spoons thereof - כפתיו cappothaiu , probably censers, on which they put up the incense; as seems pretty evident from Numbers 7:14 , Numbers 7:20 , Numbers 7:26 , Numbers 7:32 , Numbers 7:38 , Numbers 7:44 , Numbers 7:50 , Numbers 7:56 , Numbers 7:62 , Numbers 7:68 , Numbers 7:74 , Numbers 7:80 , Numbers 7:86 , where... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 25:30

Shew-bread - פנים לחם lechem panim literally, bread of faces; so called, either because they were placed before the presence or face of God in the sanctuary, or because they were made square, as the Jews will have it. It is probable that they were in the form of cubes or hexaedrons, each side presenting the same appearance; and hence the Jews might suppose they were called the bread or loaves of faces: but the Hebrew text seems to intimate that they were called the bread of faces, פנים ... read more
