12 The ark, and the staves thereof, with the mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,
12 the ark with its poles and the atonement cover and the curtain that shields it;
12 the ark with its poles, the mercy seat, and the veil of the screen;
12 the Chest with its poles, the Atonement-Cover and veiling curtain;
12 the ark and its poles, with the mercy seat, and the veil of the covering;
12 the Ark and its carrying poles; the Ark's cover-the place of atonement; the inner curtain to shield the Ark;

Commentary on Exodus 35:4-19
(Read Exodus 35:4-19)
The tabernacle was to be dedicated to the honour of God, and used in his service; and therefore what was brought for it, was an offering to the Lord. The rule is, Whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring. All that were skilful must work. God dispenses his gifts; and as every man hath received, so he must minister, 1 Corinthians 12:7-21.
