“And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.”
He cast four gold rings for it and fastened them to its four feet, with two rings on one side and two rings on the other. The four gold rings — the transport mechanism for the most sacred object — are cast and attached exactly as Exodus 25:12 specified. Two rings per long side, positioned at the feet: the rings hold the carrying poles at the bottom of the ark's height so the ark travels at shoulder height. The engineering of the rings ensures the dignity of the transport.
