Exodus 36:31 belongs to the record of the actual construction of the tabernacle, specifying the fashioning of its bars of acacia wood. It reports that five bars were made for the boards of one side of the tabernacle structure.

The precision and completeness of such workmanship illustrate the exactitude, skill, and perfection required in all work performed in God's service.
