EXODUS 36:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves.”
They joined five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another set. The five-and-six division of the outer curtains — exactly as Exodus 26:9 instructed — creates the asymmetry that provides the front overhang. The extra sixth curtain folded double at the entrance creates extra coverage at the most theologically significant threshold. Transitions matter, and the boundary between ordinary and sacred deserves additional acknowledgment.
