Context of Numbers 10:34
32And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what good soever Jehovah shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee. 33And they set forward from the mount of Jehovah three days’ journey; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went before them three days’ journey, to seek out a resting-place for them. And the cloud of Jehovah was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp. 35And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, O Jehovah, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee. 36And when it rested, he said, Return, O Jehovah, unto the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel.

- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 11-36Leaving Sinai was a key moment in Israel's history. The Israelites now had the law and God would test them on how they obeyed it.

Those which Moses made, as described by Josephus and represented on the arch of Titus, were straight, a cubit or more in length, the tubes of the thickness of a flute.
